new distributed.net clients (with new buffer options)

[Moose]

The following clients have been updated/added:

• FreeBSD [ELF/x86] v2.8010.462
• Windows 3.x [x86] v2.8010.462
• Windows 95/98/NT [x86/Zipped] v2.8010.462

By Date: http://www.distributed.net/download/updates.html
By Sys: http://www.distributed.net/download/clients.html
Changes.txt: http://www.distributed.net/download/changes.txt


This client included correct detection of Tunderbird Athlons.

This client also includes a new buffer option to flush all blocks every x.xx hours. "Buffer-level check" to be used with the Additional Buffer-level checking. I hope this is helpfull to all who miss the flush threshold option.

This client also properly saves some old ini settings and proxy info and does not fallback to distributed.net proxies if you have placed your own proxy address in the keyserver feild.

As always check and configure a single client and check functionality before upgrading large number of clients, and always report bugs to http://www.distributed.net/bugs/
