Default LimeWire 3.9.2 Beta

The LimeWire 3.9.2 beta is released, 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 3.9.2 include:
- Filters for search results!
- A brand new "community" search!
- Many more sources in search results!
- Improved firewall detection.
- Many code optimizations (submitted by Philippe Verdy).
- Upload Slot Memory, to ban greedy clients (submitted by Gregorio Roper).
- Use of a new X-Feature's header in uploads & downloads (submitted by Gregorio Roper).
- Revamped GWebCache handling (to stop hammering GWebCaches).
- MAGNET support on Linux and other Unix OSes. Just copy the magnet link to the clipboard and go back to LimeWire -- it will recognize the link and ask if you want to download the file.
- Revamped iTunes integration on OSX, to fix a possible cause of crashing (submitted by Roger Kapsi).
- Fixed many bugs related to the addition of icons in 3.9.1.
- Improved "reselection & view-moving logic" for when search results are pouring in.
- Fixed the spinning lime to stop spinning after a reasonable time.
- Fixed placement of popup menus (submitted by Roger Kapsi).

Please give this beta a heavy workout, and remember that none of the interface changes are set in stone, so you if have any suggestions, let us know! Comments on any bugs, problems, things that aren't intuitive, etc... are always welcome and appreciated.

There will be more betas with more features added as the 3.9 series progresses.

Thanks again to all open-sourcers and beta testers in helping to make LimeWire into the best file-sharing program worldwide.

Thanks,
- The LimeWire Team
