Bug Fixes:
The latest version still gets stuck on sites such as: http://www.alltheweb.com/?cat=ftp&cs=utf-8&l=any&q= it grabs the SEARCH expression when i am busy looking for a file...
Browser integration with Opera v6.05 doesn't work like it should. First tested 6.01 and then 6.05. Works for me except that in 6.05 two download dialogs are shown for each download.
Opera v7.x integration doesn't work.
Integration doesn't work in latest Mozilla.
If you have disabled browser integration and use the [ALT][CTRL]-click, the link is not picked up by Star Downloader.
Hang-up feature needs to be tested. Especially under XP.
When you have download windows showing and minimize main program through click on star icon they will disappear and be impossible to make reappear without restarting program.
The icons in the download list don't have transparent background.
There are some problems with the way the program's sub windows are handled. The system needs to be checked and tested. Right now in some cases it's possible to "hide" modal windows, causing the program to seem as if it's not responding etc.
Provide a localized version of the shell menu in the web browser. For the moment, whatever language is chosen, the shell menu is always in English: 'Download with Star Downloader'.
On slower computers the program slow down when very many (hundreds) of files are in the same category.
