eMule v0.50a ML (Español), Poderoso Cliente P2P

Un día allá por el 2002, un joven llamado Merkur, descontento con el cliente de eDonkey de aquella época, decidió que podía mejorarlo. Así nació eMule.
eMule, convertido hoy en día en uno de los clientes más populares, ha ido evolucionando gracias a ser de código abierto y la colaboración de centenares de programadores.
eMule posee interesantes funciones que facilitan su uso, como por ejemplo la captura directa de e-links, un campo para actualizar la lista de servidores, establecer prioridades y muchas más funciones que irás descubriendo con su uso.
La verdad es que este eMule resulta bastante más vistoso que el defenestrado eDonkey y consume una cantidad razonable de recursos. La comparación se reduce casi a cuestión de gustos; habrá quién prefiera eDonkey, habrá a quién le guste más eMule, a nosotros nos gustan ambos.

Changes:

• Added preferences.ini-only option “ExtraPreviewWithMenu” (eMule section) which makes eMule put the “Preview with” command into the root context menu rather than into the preview menu (only applies to extended controls with multiple preview programs set)
• Added “Open preferences.ini” button to the extended options. Remember that you have to close eMule _before_ saving any changes if you want to edit any not preferences.ini-only settings
• The Beta versioncheck will now point to a seperate website instead the standard versioncheck (which doesn’t works for betas)
• Update MiniUPnPlib to the latest version
• Updated libpng to the latest version
• The archive preview tab has now a context menu to update the contents as replacement for the “Update” button
• eMule now selects the default color of the system icon tray speedbar depending on the color of your taskbar icon area, to avoid show a dark/bright bar on a dark/bright background
• Active searches are now automatically shown in the new Kad graph by default and eMule remembers the setting (can be siwtched in the contextmenu of the graph)
• The number of maximal open upload slots has been decreased to 100
• The connection wizzard is no longer shown after finishing the first start wizzard (it’s deprecated)
• The first start wizzard is only shown on first starts and no longer after updates
• Added “Automatically show active searches” option to the context menu of the new graph which lets it switch to active lookups automatically (instead having to select it in the list). Now you can watch Kad working for hours without a click!
• The context menu in of the downloadlist allows now directly assign a file to a new category (instead of having to create it separately first)
• The “Unassign” category context menu entry is now only available if a file actually has a category
• Added a quick intermediate fix to make certain Kad lookups more reliable, improving the (search/source-) results in some cases [based on research from http://www-users.cs.umn.edu/~hopper/kad.pdf]
• AICH verification is enabled when using an ed2k link with included AICH hash, or when searching and downloading a file from Kad when certain requirements are met (this will only start to work once the majority of nodes update)
• The AICH hash can be seen in the search results list for kad searches if available
• ed2k links can no longer be created without the AICH Hash, except if it is not available. ed2k links without AICH hash are considered deprecated, but are still accepted by eMule for now
• Added preferences.ini-only option “KeepUnavailableFixedSharedDirs” (“eMule”-Section) which lets eMule keep shared directories on fixed drives even if they are not found anymore
• Added preferences.ini-only option “ForceSpeedsToKB” (“eMule”-Section), which will make eMule display all speed values in KB/s (instead of B/s to TB/s depending on the speed)
• The statistics page on in the shared files dialog also has the following new entries: Popularity rank (ranking all your shared files based on Requests), On Queue (clients on queue for the selected file) and Uploading (current bandwidth used to upload the selected file)
• The new tabs in the shared files dialog can be closed or restored by an arrow button on the right side
• Cleand up options dialog a bit: The following settings have been removed and are now preferences.ini-only: “BeepOnError”, “DontRecreateStatGraphsOnResize”, “UpdateQueueListPref”, “MessageFromValidSourcesOnly” (Section “eMule”) and “EnabledDeprecated” (section “PeerCache”)
• The exit conformation messagebox has now a “Don’t ask me again” option
• Added “Pause on when preview possible” option to the downloadlist context menu. Only visible when “advanced mode controls” is enabled
• Improved storing AICH hashsets after a download has finished – should be much faster now if you share many files
• Sparse files are available on Windows7 again, Vista stays the only version were they are disabled
• Added basic checks and user warnings for wrong operator usage (like using OR on the first keyword) in Kad. Earlier version just delivered wrong/incomplete results in such cases.
• Kad1 is no longer supported and we will no longer answer or request any packets from Kad1 nodes (the last eMule Kad1 version was release about 4 years ago)

Features:

• Added new ed2k link type: “ed2k://|search|[searchterm]|/” makes eMule start a search for the specified searchterm. Plugin for webbrowsers which make use of this will follow later
• Windows 7: Added global progress bar in the eMule taskbar button, progress colors: green when downloading, red when a download is errorous, yellow otherwise
• Windows 7: When hovering over the eMule taskbar button (connect/disconnect/throttle/unthrottle/open preferences)
• Windows 7: Overlay icon on the eMule taskbar button indicating active up- and downloads (disabled by default, enable by ini entry “ShowUpDownIconInTaskbar=1″).
• Tweaked uploadcode to significantly increase the possible uploadspeed per slot especially on LANs, making eMule more suitable for those
• Changed Kad to work better in small LANs.
• Added a new graph to the Kad window, which lets you watch each Kad lookup in detail. For non-Devs this is just for fun, you don’t need to worry about anything shown there. A detailed explanation of the graph can be found in the onlinehelp.
• Added a new dockable toolbar to the transfer dialog. The buttons resemble the context menu options, but making them accessible easier and faster. The toolbar can be removed by right clicking on it and shown again by selecting context menue option of the downloadlist
• Switched the eMule fileidentifiers from ED2k-Hash + Size to ED2k-Hash + AICH-Hash + Size. This means eMule is now using two hashing algorithms combined (based on MD4 and SHA1) to verify if a received part (and eventually the comlete files) is not corrupt
• The shared files dialog has now a tab selector, letting you choose to view the statistics,(reduced versions of) the content, ed2k-link or metadata info for the selected file(s)
