DC++ aims 0.75

Post by Pietry » 06 Mar 2009, 18:33

DC++ reached today another milestone, the release numbered 0.75. This one marks the completion ( hopefully complete ) of the transition from microsoft compiler to MinGW. Also, this release is the first one that includes REF. This means that attacked parties using this client will be able to inspect the received packets and get a referral to the corrupted hub used for attacking. This one of the first important steps in overcoming the exploitable use of Direct Connect and making DC software better not just for the regular users but for everybody that might be affected by it.

Openssl was also fixed to work with older libs, and the settings page has been completely rewritten. Also some minor tweaks like double clicking the away indicator switches to away mode, or double clicking the download/upload counters bring up the network statistics window.
Major known crashes and problems have been fixed.
We wish good luck for the DC++ team and hope they will continue to keep the flag high in the community and be a model for everybody else.
