- Fixes in 5.2d:
-
- Fix bug that temp files got moved to the recycle bin instead of being deleted.
- Fix bug when adding files from the GetRight Browser.
- Fix so smarter about automatically adding the right file type if you leave it off the file name, like "getright 5.2"
- Fix bug that could sometimes cause problems when using a HTTP proxy for FTP downloads.
- Fixes in 5.2c:
-
- Added to Download Status, Options menu so if you are using Exact ordering you can set to add new downloads as either first or last in the list.
- Added some things for FlashGot integration with Firefox.
- Added so the GetRight Browser shows any of your Server Synchronizer items in the Go menu.
- Fix so some HTTP sites with a login will prompt right.
- Fix so URLs using the user:pass@server format in the Save/Open window shows the server name right.
- Fix so detects other browsers better if a limited user account (so some settings not there.)
- A bunch of other minor fixes.
- Fixes in 5.2b:
-
- Include newer version of the UnZIP DLL that fixes a "buffer-overrun" problem in their DLL.
The problem in the older DLL is a potential security hole...for this one alone, you should upgrade.
- Fix so download window buttons are positioned right if using some different
windows display/font settings.
- Fix so "Start when Web Browser starts" shouldn't get triggered incorrectly.
- Fixes in 5.2a:
-
- Fixed elapsed time tooltip and added as regular text if window is wide enough.
And added so when paused, it shows the Elapsed time too.
- Fixed tooltips on GetRight Browser
- Fixed Opera click monitoring (sometimes the info could be in a different folder than GetRight used.)
- Improved Firefox/Mozilla click monitoring--shouldn't have to click Back if javascript is on.
(For both Opera and Firefox/Mozilla, it's best to go to the GetRight config, Monitor--More Browsers page, and uncheck them,
click the Apply button, then recheck the ones you want.)
- Fixed a bug that caused a few files to not work right.
- 5.2a+: Moving things in the download order wasn't working at all...
- 5.2a+: Yet another place Opera could store its info.
- Changes since 5.1:
- The Biggest Improvements:
-
- Increase from 32 bit numbers (which maxes out at about 2GB for a single file)
to 64 bits (which is about 8 billion Gigabytes). Should be good for another 1000 years or so!
(How your disk is formatted can limit file sizes too: FAT limit is 2GB, FAT32 limit is 4GB, NTFS is unlimited.
Info from Microsoft.)
- Switched so the "by file type" Internet Explorer click monitoring uses a different method
(now is a Browser Helper Object) which seems to have fewer quirks with Windows XP SP2 and a few other
things. It's been the alternate method we referred people to try if they
had problems, so really has been used by a lot of people over the years. Probably won't even notice
any differences, if so, you can still use the "classic" method.
There's a checkbox on the bottom of the Types & Options config page.
- Added built in click monitoring for many more browsers.
Uses a plugin for Mozilla, Firefox, Netscape 6/7; with Opera it uses a feature to have Opera send the URL to
another program.
- Medium:
-
- Added MODE Z for FTP transfers. Compresses the transfer of files and directory listings. Will make a big
difference especially if downloading text. Doesn't do it for ZIP, EXE, RAR, or other already compressed types; and
FTP servers are only just starting to add the feature; but is pretty cool with the right data and a server that allows it!
I've seen folder contents compressed over 90% in the GetRight Browser!
The RaidenFTPD server does it and lists
some other servers that do too!
- Added NTLM authorization.
- Minor changes:
-
- Handles it better if the GetRight folder isn't writeable
(for a user account, etc.) and does better with multiple user accounts,
especially if an account is has limited access.
- Fixed HTTPS with proxy servers, including proxy servers that need logins.
- A little tweaking to try and improve page processing speed for Synchronizer.
- Changed the "*.LOG" file format to make it much more readable.
- Made it better at getting the right login form for web pages with more than one form.
- Added so Download Status shows the % and total sizes for selected items (so can select
a bunch of files and see what the total size is, etc.)
- Handles things better when getting to the end of a segmented download.
If a mirror with a significantly faster transfer speed is known and the
last chunk will take more than a couple minutes, GetRight will switch to
that mirror.
- Fix a couple causes of crashes with Segmenting if the file isn't found.
- Won't let download windows be Maximized (could happen if Download Status
was maximized and opened a download.)
- Move some of the less commonly used config menus under the Advanced branch.
- Added tiny ToGetRight.exe program that just passes a URL on the command line to GetRight.
It is much faster than doing the same by running GetRight.exe.
For some click monitoring from Opera
and the DownloadWith Mozilla plugin.
- Improved "close with browser" so it recognizes many more web browsers (Mozilla, Firefox, Opera, Netcaptor, etc.)
- Added "Saved To" column for History on Download Status.
- Changed things so if GetRight can't remove the .GetRight from a file when it is finish, it will be
removed when you reboot--so will get the name right eventually.
- Skip getting file date from FTP if Norton Internet Security is installed; it incorrectly thinks the message
GetRight sends is a Denial of Service attack and stops GetRight.
- There's lots more too. Many more small and big improvements and fixes!
