bot update - again

[Smoketoomuch]

new bot again - got popop window today about update (not used it for a few days, so maybe not so new). Regular users may know about this, irregular may not, those who never tried should try it with this combination: sharereactor patch, edonkey bot, edonkey v59. I noticed that they regularly polish there software - every two months (at least) new versions, but all works, even V57. The best customer policy - see their with/without Cydoor note on their homepage http://www.edonkey2000.com/index.html

Oh, this is mainly for morph users, since if payd version screws up everything, I think the best choice is donkey - excellent file availability, and I checked music also - much larger database then fasttrack - but you have to use global search that comes with the bot. Here is the message about botupdate:

(eDonkeyBot 1.0

02/24/2002

NEW
* Sharereactor fake search direct link from FGS window (popup menu)
* FAST Global Search auto-pause every 100 results in order to reduce server's load.
Please don't extend search if you don't really need to.
* Servers preference managed when bot try to connect
* Mode 'most users' when bot try to connect to servers
* Server change if low ID
* Number of users logged (log file)
* Server change if few users (independant value of the servers list one)
* Connection detect procedures rewritten
* New speed preset for DSL/CABLE users
* Number of files managed (auto-prioriy, looking boost) increased (256 now, 128 before)
* Preferences saving problems (servers list, proxy): fixed

The same constant update happens with bot also (this is the third one I see since I began using donkey a month ago). So I got the feeling, that this is a living thing - while there is the case of the three monkeys with morpheus.

After 3 crashes in one day, I'm a bit nervous to even open the program.

Hello.

The same with me multi. Can you imagine such availability on fasttrack network? never. For instance, the full (I mean cd image) version of a 7 (!) cd program I just noticed on sharereactor. And if it comes to games - fasttrack: mostly rips, donkey> mostly full versions.

About the patch - it simply makes sharereactor your default page in the donkey. I was just going to give you the link from where you can download it, but I now know why you don't know. I have it here, but I don't know how or from where I downloaded it - I browsed sharereactor webpage, but couldn't find it. Still looking. The name of the file is> edonkey.sharereactorifier.for.v59.clam.exe



ps. Other pages like sharereactor - not as good though, and most stuffs overlap, but if you looking for something specific, might help>

I still can't find it. I tried to download to the cheese (which is still empty, didn't have time to fill it yet), but always got the message invalid file type. I tried to rename it (nfo, doc, zip, php) but didn't work.

But then I renamed it to reactorify.doc and lo: success.

But then I go visit> http://www.magicalcheese.com/smoketoomuch/

and nothing there. How long it takes to appear? I even made a test directory and uploaded file there, then in base directory also, but I don't see it, only come back later message.

I have to go for now, in case you want to see sharereactor inside donkey, you might try my "homepage", maybe it will be there by then, but i still have to figure out how it works.



ps. You have to rename it to .exe (the orig. filename>edonkey.sharereactorifier.for.v59.clam.exe

Thanks for help Multi. Today I got new bot message. I post it because I had that permanently reconnecting prob with 1.0A.

"Hi all,

* Problems with SLUG server list at this time.
You can use Maurice's list while list bugs are not fixed.

* Current bot version is 1.0A. If you experiment connections problems (permanently reconnecting), check at your bot log. If you see many servers change because low ID is detected, uncheck ID control at servers tab of dialog box options. I'll look at this problem in next version.

* eDonkeyBot is now DonateWare. If you find edonkeybot useful, please donate (what you want). This encourage me to develop more and more powerful features
Thanks"
