Time to update once again with some important bug fixes. Especially the bug in 0.3 that sucks up 100% of your CPU during certain operations and stays that way.
Some key updates.
- Removed some memory leaks
- Many bug fixes relating to the away system
- CPU went to 100% if resized to small
- Netlib could cause 100% CPU usage during fast file transfers
- Added a heap compactor to flush out memory every 5 minutes
- Autoaway no longer pops up change status message dialog
- Added a Global Status Icons setting under icons. This lets you set the default systray icon and global status menu icons.
If your still using 0.2, you'll also find these new features from the last release.
- Bundled support for ICQ, AIM, Jabber and MSN
- Several "crash on exit" bugs fixed
- full list of changes
One bug I have found and not sure if it's fixed or not but occasionally I've received messages from one user, through another users message box. It's very noticeable and you probably won't get caught sending a message to the wrong person but it does require a restart of Miranda to fix.
This release also changed all the default icons. Not terrible, but a bit more detailed then the previous so I took the time and download 2 optional icon packs (shown on left). I have yet to decide which of the 3 I will use regularly.
Since my last post I have also made some changes to the plug-ins by dropping nHistory (it just stopped working), pop3, rss and nCovers and adding the plug-ins History++ and Message export.
