  1. I changed the permissions on the registry key for the magnet uri handler to read only.
     
    Now the setting stays, but the "System Log" gives me this on every start.
     
    [10:27:44] Error creating magnet registry key
     
    Here is my current registry key
     
    Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
    
    [HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareClassesmagnet]
    @="URL:MAGNET URI"
    "URL Protocol"=""
    
    [HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareClassesmagnetDefaultIcon]
    @="C:Program Files (x86)Delugedeluge.exe"
    
    [HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareClassesmagnetshell]
    
    [HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareClassesmagnetshellopen]
    
    [HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareClassesmagnetshellopencommand]
    @="C:Program Files (x86)Delugedeluge.exe "%1""
    
    

    Is it not possible to disable this stupid behaviour?


  2. As long as the "crapware" is never selected by default and never will, only if the user wants it, i see no problem with it.

    But make sure to have clear wording, some people check crapware because they think it's one of those eula things or something.

    So, it's a good thing as long as the "install" option is not selected by default.


  3. i just got this email this morning

    Sincerely,

    The Softpedia Team

    and they did that even if i did not ask for that or anything.

    Seems it's good enough :)

    too bad im a lazy coder so it's very badly updated...


  4. There are way too many hubs that don't allow ApexDC++, and that would cause problems for users who don't know how to enable emulation.

    that's their choice, right ? (hubowners)

    plus, emulation goes off when you add a hub to fav's...

    if hubs don't like apex, fine, then apex users can cheat and emulate OR join a better hub...


  5. i'd like to bump this request, i think it's important and should be default.

    even simply removing emulation completely would be even better...

    as they say, hub owners should be allowed to say who can enter their hub and who can't, if they don't want apexdc++ that's their choice and i don't want to step on any toes...

    example: I mean, i join a hub, it seems awesome, i add it to favs, BOOM apexdc not allowed so i NEED to emulate dc++ using a client the hubowner didn't want to allow in the hub in the first place, maybe even breaking rules and maybe even getting banned...

    So ...


  6. but isn't tls only used for client to client communication?

    all of the ports are...

    you connect to the hub to it's port, if the hub is running on localhost connect to localhost or lan ip (unless set in hosts file).


  7. The TiB in ApexDC++ seems to be using a wrong formula

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kibibyte

    it should calculate using 1024 but seems to be using 1000

    Why?

    example:

    SELECT (SUM(sharesize)/1000/1000/1000/1000) AS sharesize FROM nickstats WHERE online = 'y';
    27.52 TiB. (shown in ApexDC++)
    SELECT (SUM(sharesize)/1024/1024/1024/1024) AS sharesize FROM nickstats WHERE online = 'y';

    25.03 TiB. (should be shown (1024))


  8. Hubs that don´t allow ApexDC don´t deserve any users and should be closed. From the other hand hub owners who don´t allow ApexDC should have the right to choose what clients thay allow. From both points of view emulating sould not be in any client.

    agree completely


  9. It is not silly at all. Imagine a hub doesn't let you in because it does not recognize your tag. This way, by emulating DC++, the chances that you will be connected to the hub successfully, dramatically increase.

    but, isn't apexdc++ the most popular dc++ client ?


  10. I hate these usericons, how about to keep it simple and straight forward= Active or Passive and Away or not, thats all a user needs. I´ve been using DC for many years and those icons are not helping at all thay just confuse users and thay are not accutate. An option for using simple or advanced usericons sould be in place and have simple for defult.

    100000% agree !
