Software update: Sick Beard build 493 alpha

A new build of Sick Beard has been released. This program can keep an eye on when new episodes of your favorite TV series are available and if there are better quality episodes available. In addition, it can bring some uniformity in the naming, and it is possible to download episodes from usenet and to a lesser extent via BitTorrent. The program is written in Python and can therefore be used on various operating systems. Development is at an early stage and the program is still offered as alpha. The changelog for this release looks like this:
