Download DU Meter 5.30 build 3518

Hagel Technologies has released version 5.30 of DU Meter. With this program the data traffic can be monitored. Not only does it show what the current upload and download speeds are, it can also make nice graphs of the data traffic consumed. In addition, the program can issue a warning if it detects dangerous or unusual network activity. In version 5.30 the following changes and improvements have been made:

Localization fixes

• Badly broken localization after an upgrade from version 5.26: Some localization files were not updated properly during an upgrade.
• Language setting in DU Meter options did not reflect actual GUI language in effect.
• Several typos and other small errors in localized text are fixed.
• DU Meter title bar showed wrong text after a language change.

GUI Fixes

• DU Meter taskband was not working properly on Windows Server 2008 R2 or when Windows 7 classic theme was in effect.
• Network connection Viewer did not show names for some processes.
• Network Connection Viewer now fully supports IPv6.
• Mini-mode is activated on double-click regardless whether DU Meter taskbar band is visible or not.
• DU Meter “beep” sound was clipping badly.
• Registration notification dialog is no longer shown if full-screen applicaton is active (game, video, etc.)
• Two registration notification messages were sometimes shown after the reboot.

Startup & shutdown fixes

• DU Meter intermittently failed to start on Windows startup if auto-logon is enabled.
• DU Meter service sometimes failed to start properly on some Windows XP computers with SSD hard disks (and reported Error 111 to the Windows event log).
• Weird crashes on Windows shutdown are fixed.

Installation fixes

• DU Meter installer should not proceed with the install if Base Filtering Engine (BFE) is not working properly on user’s computer.
• DU Meter service was not explicitly defined as depending on Base Filtering Engine on Windows Vista and later.
• DU Meter service reinstall sometimes left service not registered properly during an upgrade.

Other fixes

• Corrected DU Meter Service error reporting: errors were not always saved in the error log.
• DU Meter error log could grow without limit: new error reporting component prevents this.
• Token handle leak in DU Meter service fixed: DU Meter could leak handles if nobody is logged in and desktop notifications are scheduled to be run.
• IPv4 filter mask was not applied properly if custom IP address filter was specified in DU Meter options.
