Changed some things to fix the 469 error that a few people get.
Fix starting from Firefox/Opera if GetRight wasn't running.
Change some default directory things, for new installs and if still the C:\Downloads default.
So Picture types will default to MyPictures, music to MyMusic, etc.
Changed the graph's look, can right click to select from several colors.
Added some checks to make sure the save-to folder wasn't too long for Windows.
Added so GetRight Browser gets a default folder if opened for a Server Synchronizer or Podcast item.
Fix downloading an updated translation file.
Had mixed up height & width one place for remembering the window sizes.
Added so %MON% sorts of variables will work for any of the Save To config items.
So could use one default folder of C:\Downloads\%MONTH%-%YYYY%\ to get ...\August-2006\
Fixed so SaveAs will cleanup temp files better, and not connect as much for looking for redirects.
Added a message if CyberPatrol seems to be causing problems (blocking all access!)
Disabled the gzip encoding...seems to cause some files to be corrupted
Fixed a few more Torrent things. Another cause of slowly losing peers.
Fix so drag-drop files to GR Browser to upload will start them if you click Now.
Added so ServerSync items in the Download Status tree have a GetRight Browser menu to open them in the browser.
Fix so \\server\share\path sorts of folders are remembered correctly.
Fixed a couple script commands (automatic and set speed limit).
Added a Podcast config page (and a button from the Podcast Downloader window to open it).
Changed how the Tip window appears when adding a download, so will re-use if one was showing.
Little toolbar change, a different Config button.
