Lightbulb Shareaza 2.0.2.0 beta

Hey all!

Since Shareaza went open source with version 2.0.0.0, a lot has happened, and finally there's now a new beta that can be recommended to be installed.

The full change log and other information can be found on this thread of the Shareaza forums. A lot has been changed and among the most important changes is the fix for the eDonkey2000 protocol. Version 2.0.0.0 and older won't fully work with new eDonkey2000 server software, 2.0.2.0 works fine. Hashing was assembler-optimized and now runs much much faster, and new BitTorrent settings allow better control. Also we have a new installer and hope that it works fine. You can now make a multi-user install if you want, which keeps settings and data seperate for each user. If do a multi-user install, I strongly recommend to uninstall previous versions. Remember that this is still a beta, backing up data might be a good idea. This beta aims to go toward a new 2.1.0.0 release.

Enjoy!

Some other useful links:Note: Don't use version 2.0.1.0, it has been found to cause too much troubles. Unshare it if you have it.
