Shareaza 2.4 Released

First stable release to provide IRC support and the TorrentWizard for easier BitTorrent downloading.

Shareaza is a P2P file-sharing client which supports the Gnutella, Gnutella2, eDonkey Network, BitTorrent, FTP and HTTP network protocols and handles magnet links, ed2k links, Piolet links, and the now deprecated Gnutella links.

Released by developer Michael Stokes into the open source community on June 1, 2004, Shareaza 2.4 celebrates more than 4 years of freedom by presenting almost 900 changes from the previous release. It contains numerous bug fixes and major changes to provide better stability of the client. It is also the first stable release to provide IRC support.

Windows 98/Me support has been discontinued -and Vista enhanced- with multi-generation upgrades in underlying platforms. TorrentWizard is now bundled, new IRC Chat provides easy support and community, and countless new and improved features are both subtly throughout and unseen (ChangeLog).

This latest stable release was done in 9 months of solid dedication under difficult circumstances. If you recall, it was on December 19th, 2007 of last year that the the project’s domain name, Shareaza.com, was hijacked and redirected to an unrelated site, promoting the download of a client known as ShareazaV4. As a result, the original project was forced to move their home page to SourceForge.net.

Note: Upgrading from any prior version is safe, however downgrading from 2.4 back to prior releases may lose active downloads. A clean install should clear up any unusual behaviors.
