Download eMule 0.26 alpha

Alpha version 0.26 of the file-sharing program eMule was recently released. In this release, among other things, a security bug has been fixed, the rest of the changelog can be read below:

Ornis: fixed reset server log crash
Unk: Fixed security hole. (beef2k)
Unk: Created a new algorithm to smooth out the spikeing TCP connections. This will help several things..
– Spiking CPU & Bandwidth when many sources are added or reasked.
-Help with conflicts between Source Exchange and UDP file reasks allowing UDP to be used more lowering the need for TCP and overhead.
Unk: Irc: Fixed another bug that could cause a crash when you close a channel.
Unk: Queue size is now adjustable.. (FYI: Contrary to belief, queue size has NOTHING to do with the amount of bandwidth overhead..)
Unk: File buffer size is now adjustable. If you are one of them people that is having problems with the buffer, try lowering it.
Unk: Download file priorities are now usable for rechecking sources.
Unk: Some clients may be reporting completed file status. Did some changes to hopefully stop this.
Unk: Added queue rank of Hybrid eDonkey clients.
Unk: Fixed protocol to allow eMule to stay in the Hybrid’s queue.
Unk: Changing IP shouldn’t force you to move to the end of the queue anymore.
Unk: Redid sorting or Download list one more time.
Unk: Sources with a full queue is now treated the same as ‘No Needed Parts’.. (means: they will be replaced by other sources when you reach source limit)
