NewsBin Pro 3.32

Release History

 

NewsBin Pro 3.32 DLL Patch October 30, 2001 (Download Here)

 

  • Fixes problem reported by some users where the thumbnail images are no longer display.  Everyone should download and install this patch just in case.  Copy it over your existing jpgrender.dll file in the folder where NewsBin is installed.  Patch is already included in downloads starting October 30, 2001.

 

NewsBin Pro 3.32 Build 2535 September 28, 2001 (Download Here)

 

  • Handles conversion of 3.31 configuration files correctly in most cases.  We still have reports of news server username/password corruption when upgrading from 3.31 to 3.32 but we cannot re-create it.  If this happens, re-enter your news server username/password and it should work fine.

  • Minor cleanup from final beta release

 

 

NewsBin Pro 3.32B10 Build 2533 September 17, 2001

 

  • Really fixes the problem with NewsBin exiting for no apparent reason while downloading jpg images.  Problem was only with corrupt images.

  • Fixes problem where poster lockout information was not being saved between runs.

  • Changes to low level socket library calls to allow interoperability with Zone Alarm.

 

NewsBin Pro 3.32B9 Patch September 15, 2001

 

  • Fixes problem with NewsBin exiting for no apparent reason while downloading jpg images.  Problem was only with corrupt images.  Download jpgrender.dll, 99KB, dated 9/15/01, and replace your exiting jpgrender.dll.

 

NewsBin Pro 3.32B9 Build 2532 September 12, 2001

 

  • Fixes feature allowing files to be downloaded to a single directory instead of into directories named after the newsgroup from which the files were downloaded.

  • This release is strongly recommended to replace any older 3.x version of NewsBin due to the fix with the Post ID Cache.

 

NewsBin Pro 3.32B8 Build 2530 September 11, 2001

 

  • Added logic to minimize impact of configuration file corruption if version 4.0 is run before 3.32.

  • This release is strongly recommended to replace any older 3.x version of NewsBin due to the fix with the Post ID Cache.

 

NewsBin Pro 3.32B7 Build 2527 September 10, 2001

 

  • Fixed problem with Post ID Cache when unix time rolled over 1 billion

  • Reverted to old way of starting on next group a few posts before the current group has completed.

 

NewsBin Pro 3.32B6 Build 2526 July 24, 2001

 

  • Fixed crash when filter file gets too big

  • Include different memory manager that releases system memory when it is done with it (before it held on to it in case it needed it again later).

  • Minor GUI cleanup.

 

NewsBin Pro 3.32B5 Build 2520 July 16, 2001

 

  • Fixed error and crash when exiting NewsBin while in Automatic Mode downloading binaries and headers at the same time.

 

NewsBin Pro 3.32B4 Build 2518 July 12, 2001

 

  • Fixed automatic conversion from DOS style filter to regular expression for subject and filename filters.

  • Modified logic with subject and filename filters to apply the "Accept" filters first and then apply the "Reject" filters.  Before, the "Accept" filters would override any matching "Reject" filters.

Known Bug:

  • When in Automatic Mode, if you exit NewsBin while downloading binaries and the header download is still taking place, you may see an error message saying "Error killing threads" and NewsBin may crash.  We are working on B5 right now to fix that problem.

 

NewsBin Pro 3.32B3 Build 2506 July 1, 2001

 

  • Fixed bug where deleting groups deleted multiple groups by mistake

  • Hooked up full regular expression parsing to filename and subject filters (under spam filter option)

Known Bug:

  • Automatic conversion from DOS style filter to regular expression is sometimes incorrect.  For example, spam*.jpg should be converted to spam.*[.]jpg but instead it gets converted to spam*[.]jpg.

 

NewsBin Pro 3.32B2 Build 2482 June 14, 2001

 

  • Fixed performance problem that cropped up when Usenetserver rebuilt their servers.

  • Fixed minor bug where groups could not be de-selected from the groups dialog box

 

NewsBin Pro 3.32B1 Build 2480 June 13, 2001

 

  • Fixed bug in 3.31 where groups list was corrupted after adding new servers.  This only seemed to occur if you first sorted your group list and then added servers.  Would cause NewsBin to hang upon saving the configuration.

  • This version has the thumbnail rendering code split out into a DLL as we begin a shift in how NewsBin is distributed.  NewsBin DLL's will need to be in the directory where NewsBin is installed.  We do not require NewsBin executable components to be in any windows system directories.

  • Fixed bug where a uuencoded post may be identified as MIME post.  This was an intermittent bug and the result was that the file would not be downloaded.
