Still, if I remember well, before we discussed that it could be a case with an Englishman living in Poland, f. ex. Also, I suspect GeoIP is not perfect. So I personally trust more the prefixes, if not I try the 3-4 languages I spoke, starting with English. :)

I believe the country of origin flag is only retrieved when you start a download from someone? If so putting it into the userlist could be a little less hassle.

Well, it may be possible to make it show when you mouse-click (select) the user. If it is retrieved for all users when you enter the hub, the entering could be a little longer. Similar with retrieving song info in Winamp...

Offtopic: Glad to see you too, Beertje! :w00t:

What I am saying is, it may be required for you to (start a) download from someone before this info becomes availble. The easiest option would be to download there filelist... or start to download it to get this info. Anyway, this was an if, although I think it's probable a download from a user is needed I'm far from certain.

This just made me realize that the current columns for IP, PK String and Lock, that we have, also show info only when you start to download smth from the user (just checked it).

My idea was that there could be an option to send some ping-like command to the users in userlist (not to all simultaneously, it will probably lead to overload). This command further can be customized to run only when the user clicks another user in the list, or in the background, continuously adding user info, or not to run at all (to have the old program behaviour). Not very clear explanation... :)

Umm... not that well clearly explained so I'll just do the simple thing and not read it totally and spend 5minutes trying to understand. Include I will base my reply on the first sentence of what you just said.

If those ettings are only retrieved when you obtain someones filelist then I think it's perfectly acceptable to add in this option to display the flags but just have it so it's only displayed when you get the filelist just like these other columns.

I strongly believe that you should not be able to simply click on a user and automatically retrieve this infomaration as it's jsut wasting bandwidth, if there's a specific user you want these details of you will probably be willing to download there filelist?
