New in eMule 0.49b Beta 1 (Jul 15, 2008)

  • Added MiniUPnPLib as additional UPnP implementation, the current Windows service based implementation is used as fallback. This will hopefully make eMule's UPnP compatible to most available routers. [miniupnplib by Thomas Bernard, Test & Suggestion: leuk_
  • A specific UPnP implementation can be disabled by adding "DisableMiniUPNPLibImpl=1" or "DisableWinServImpl=1" into the "UPnP" section of the preferences.ini
  • When reading a nodes.dat without any verified contacts (possible an old file version), eMule will assume all contacts to be verified to avoid slowing down the connecting process
  • Project files for VS2005 and VS2008 have been added, however the official eMule is still developed and compiled on VS2003
  • Several changes were made to Kad in order to defy routing attacks researched by University of Minnesota guys [Peng Wang, James Tyra, Eric Chan-Tin, Tyson Malchow, Denis Foo Kune, Nicholas Hopper, Yongdae Kim], in particular:
  • Kad contacts will only be able to update themself in others routing tables if they provide the proper key (supported by 0.49a nodes) in order to make it impossible to hijack them
  • Kad uses now a three-way-handshake (or for older version a similar check) for new contacts, making sure they do not use a spoofed IP
  • Unverified contacts are not used for routing tasks and a marked with a special icon in the GUI
  • Fixed: Shared Files window splitter did not properly save/restore position
  • Did first small step in dropping Kad1 support by not probing unknown Kad contacts for Kad1 anymore to save overhead. Kad1 clients will nevertheless still be work for now
  • Fixed a bug which let Kad sometimes assume a Kad2 contact to be Kad1 after probing for both versions
  • Fixed: Memory leak in context menus
  • Added: Vista styles for context menus
  • Fixed: Pressing ESC in Shared Files window filter destroyed the entire window
  • Added additional sanitize checks to make sure eMule never writes downloaded data into an already completed part
