The LimeWire 3.9.3 beta is released, with the pro version available from a link on your Pro download page, and the free version available from the LimeWire download page.

Changes in 3.9.3 include:

  • ID3v2 support!
  • Redesigned themes, and a brand new search interface!
  • Renamed ‘Community Search’ to “What’s New”.
  • Icons showing if a search result is already saved, already downloading, or already partially downloaded.
  • Support for displaying file-type icons on Windows with Java 1.3.
  • Support for browse-hosting people connected to you. (Just double-click on the line in the Connections tab!)
  • Automatic recovery of corrupt files. This uses the “Tree Hash EXchange Protocol” (THEX). Contributions from Gregorio Roper & Philippe Verdy were used for this.
  • Automatic preferencing for peers with a similiar locale. This means that Japanese users will tend to connect to other Japanese users, or French users will tend to connect to other French users, etc…
  • Much faster startup times (on ‘loading core components’).
  • Power Management. When LimeWire is in the background, it will consume less resources & bandwidth so that you can use other programs with no delays.
  • Fixed international Windows installer.
  • Fixed problems where a file would endlessly download with no change in progress, submitted by Gregorio Roper.
  • Full HTTP & SOCKS proxy support, originally submitted by Gregorio Roper.
  • Support for running alongside programs that install incompatable java libraries.
  • Various bug fixes and optimizations, submitted by Roger Kapsi, Philippe Verdy and Jens-Uwe Mager.
  • … and even more features, optimizations, and overall goodness are coming in future betas!

LimeWire is keeping it’s place as a top-notch program available on all platforms, thanks to open source contributions and beta testers.

Please keep us informed on what you like & dislike with this new beta!

Thanks,
The LimeWire Team
