LimeWire 3.9.1 Beta

Recommended Posts

We've released the LimeWire 3.9.1 beta, with the pro version available from a link on your pro download page, and the free version available from the LimeWire download page.

Changes in 3.9.1 include:

- Better detection of all unhandled errors.

- Support for a future change of requesting certain file types.

- OOB Proxying, which means that even hosts that are firewalled can take advantage of super-fast out-of-band queries.

- Better use of invalid locations in downloaders, allowing failed locations to be retried after a long enough period of inactivity (submitted by Gregorio Roper).

- Better intelligence about when to not do OOB queries, so that hosts who incorrectly set it can still receive results.

- Icons for the file types in search results, uploads, downloads, and the library. This currently requires Java 1.4 or higher on Windows to correctly get the native icons -- we're exploring ways for it to work with Java 1.3 on Windows. (It always works on OSX, and will likely never work on Mac Classic.)

- A new 'Change Language' mention option under View in the menu bar.

As more 3.9 betas are released, more features will likely be added, including:

- THEX support.

- DAAP support, for iTunes integration on Windows too.

- Socks Proxying / HTTP Tunneling support.

- Upload slot memory.

- Better detection of features on the uploader or downloader.

- Many many code optimizations.

- ID3v2 support.

- Filters for search results.

... and many other additions, both in the interface and internally.

Thank you for your help in testing the betas!

- The LimeWire Team

    • Wait, Burning Man is going online-only? What does that even look like?
      You could have been forgiven for missing the announcement that actual physical Burning Man has been canceled for this year, if not next. Firstly, the nonprofit Burning Man organization, known affectionately to insiders as the Borg, posted it after 5 p.m. PT Friday. That, even in the COVID-19 era, is the traditional time to push out news when you don't want much media attention. 
      But secondly, you may have missed its cancellation because the Borg is being careful not to use the C-word. The announcement was neutrally titled "The Burning Man Multiverse in 2020." Even as it offers refunds to early ticket buyers, considers layoffs and other belt-tightening measures, and can't even commit to a physical event in 2021, the Borg is making lemonade by focusing on an online-only version of Black Rock City this coming August.    Read more...
