Anonymous: 40954 informs us that a new version of the file-sharing program WinMX has been released. It is a Beta version, but the changelog shows that quite a few changes have been included. Below is this changelog.

corrected major bug that caused crashes when # of total uploads (dead or running) + download connections + OpenNap servers + channel connections >= 1024

major re-write of all bandwidth throttle code, old version was allowing outgoing UDP packets to violate bandwidth throttle, which then causes other problems for users with primary connections, especially ADSL users with limited outgoing bandwidth

major re-write of channel redirect code, however it hasn’t been tested under real-world conditions yet

bandwidth graph paint code has been greatly streamlined, was taking too much CPU time

dangerous filetype warning suppress should work now

bandwidth throttle now has adjustable resolution (and defaults to 200ms instead of 100ms in v3.1 ) <<

master window second row buttons will now always show in appropriate mode, even if channels and searches are undocked

secondary connection can be cycled without losing channel connections (click the “Make Secondary Connection” radio button, and your current connection will be disconnected and WinMX will find a new one.)
