--- Version 4.42 ---

The dcc server is turned automatically of after restarting mIRC (security reasons).
Added: Support for MD5 Checksum which migth be sent when download is completed.
After getting MD5 information you will see an option in the Status Windows to check the file MD5.

This was created becaus efor example irchighway issue a 30 min punish ignore if you request while it is out of the channel.
Note: This option is disabled by default. You can enable it in XDCC Klipper configuration.
Added: Track of dulpicates. When enabled it will check (when download starts), is the file already exists in the completed
files directory, or if in the status window the same file is marked as completed in another bot or another pack number.

15) Fixed the offline bots bugs that where in version 4.21 ("Remove the line" showed twice when user right
clicked on a offline bot in the status window. The user could not disable requests of packs from offline bots).

16) Added support to a new kind of bots.

-4.11

1) Fixed few bugs regarding the e-mail function (made it more reliable). If XDCC Klipper is only connect to the server, but
not joins the channel when using the e-mail function, make sure you are using the right e-mail format!!!. The one which is
used by Infabot is wrong. For the right format, check the support in the website!

2) Added a Verification code to the e-mail function, which prevents other people from controlling your XDCC Klipper. (they
must know your Verification code in order to control it. The Verification code is defined in the configuration menu).

3) Disabled the Hot-Key of the configuration menu (F10), cause a lot of people which use other scripts having problems with
it. In order to open the configuration menu, right click on the status window, and choose "XDCC Klipper Configuration".

4) Added function which auto check for update for XDCC Klipper, as soon as you start mIRC.

5) Added the option (in the configuration menu), to control the coloring of the bots, and other windows.

6) You can now hide the messages about the e-mail, is you want. (Also in the configuration menu)

7) You can change the time between each e-mail check. (Also in the configuration menu)

8) Added an indicator to the XDCC Klipper window which shows the state of the bot. {READY} means that there are some opened
slots. {number/number} (for example {7/10}) means that 7 of 10 queues are already taken. When you see {FULL}, it means
that there are no available slots or queues.

9) Added an indicator to the XDCC Klipper window which shows the channel there the pack was posted. For example (#xdcc)

10) Added a Get On Queue option to the Nicks List (you can now use the Get On Queue function even if the pack haven't been

13) Made the search engines function more comfortable. It now has a history of the last 10 keywords you used, and you can
set a default search engine which will appear as soon as you open the search engines dialog.

-4.0

1) Added a configuration window, which let change some basic things with xdcc klipper (like timing). 
Press on F10 to open the window.

2) Ever been at work or school, and wanted to tell XDCC Klipper (at home) to download something??.
Now you can. I integrated an e-mail script with xdcc klipper which let it get e-mails from POP3 e-mail
accounts, and download what you tell it to download.

3) Changed the resume method. It will now try to resume any failed download, even of you were the one
who canceled it (due to some problems when a download failed, and the script though that you canceled
it even though you didn't). After a download is failed, a window will be popped up and will ask you if
you want to cancel the resume. (So click on yes if you where the person who canceled it).

4) XDCC Klipper 3.4 had an option which let it disable the resuming for a bot, but what to do if because
of a massive hammering, the bot is not there and will not get back any more?????. For this matter, 
xdcc klipper 4.0 has an option which will show you the list of all the bots on a specific Network,
which have resuming on (Even if the bots are not there any more), so you could disable the resuming
for the bot that you want. (To open the list, just right click on one of the bots, and choose "Open list
of Bots which wait for resuming").

5) XDCC Klipper 3.4 had a build it function to open the search page on Packetnews. Since then, packetnews has
changed a lot, and the function stopped working. XDCC Klipper 4.0 now has 4 MRC files which the last
one is the search-engines file. It now works with Packetnews, Xdccspy, Xgoogle, Xdccspider,
Ircspy, Xdccsearch, and Botcrawler , and the search-engine file can be updated.
When ever a new search-engine for packs will pop, or the search method on one of the search engines
will be changed, I will update the search-engine will, and put it in the website.
Feel free to e-mail me if you know of a new search engine for packets.

6) The annoying Timer Messages are now hidden. (The timers still work, but you don't get noticed about it).

7) Now, when you unload xdccklipper.mrc, it will auto-unload the other XDCC Klipper files

8) In the option, you can set XDCC Klipper to save the files inside directories named after the bots names
(Just like in ren-ren).

9) Disabled the "Offline Browser". It is useless function which takes a lot of resources from mIRC,
and has no good since packetnews and similar websites has their own database.

10) Chnaged XDCC Klipper that the queue should open automaticaly with the klipper window (and not only
when you have something on the queue.

11) When you leave a server (when you close it's status window), the klipper windows are being auto closed.



-3.4
VERY IMPORTANT: In order that the auto-resume function will work properly, you should enable 2 options in mIRC:
A) File--->Options--->Connect options----> Enable reconnect on disconnection
B) File--->Options--->IRC----> Rejoin channels on connect

Whats new?
----------
1) Fixed some very old issue regarding bots, which have more than 9 packs.

2) Changed the “Open the Get On Queue list” function to open a windows instead of the text file itself,
which enables the user to see the packs, and delete them from the “Get On Queue” list using the Right-Click.

3) Ever wanted to download packs #1, #2, #3, ... From the same bot, and didn’t have the time for waiting until it finishes
downloading a file, so you could ask for the next one? Well, you don’t have to wait any more. Just start downloading
the first file from the bot (it can be even just added to the queue). Add the rest of the files to the clipper
(this option is in the XDCCKlipper window, where the packs are listed), and as soon as it finishes downloading a file
from that bot, it using the “Get On Queue” function in order to put the file on the bot’s queue or in the download slots,
just like an automated machine gun. 
Please note that the clipper function listens to the channel and waits for a “download complete” message in order to
ask for the next pack, so if you just put the packs on the clipper without downloading anything from that bot, it will
not start downloading the packs. Have fun ;-) 

4) Added an offline browser which write to a txt file all the packs that are being listed on the xdccklipper window (only
the packs that are being reported by the channel. Packs which are listed because of "xdcc list" command will not be written
into the txt file). Now you can search for a certain pack in the offline browser using the menu, and double clicking a line
will ask you if you want to connect to the network and channel, so you could download the pack. (this option is good for 
people who doesn't know that packetnews is, or when packetnews is down).
Note: You should clear the txt file once a week in order to remove bots which are no longer exist. Since the
offline browser is writting to a text file, and the xdcc klipper now works with almost any DCC bot, then if you work with a
lot of opened channels, it can make mIRC to lockup for few seconds from time to time (I was working with 30 channels open at
the same time, and it was kinda heavy when a lot of bots posted what they have at the same time).
If you don't want the offline browser, replace the xdccklipper.mrc with the xdccklipper.bkp which is included in the zip.

-3.3 
Check out the new Auto-Resume system, and a new function which allows you to request packs list from the
selected bots (Up to 30 or 40 bots from the same channel. This function can be used at the same time on several channels
and several networks).

-3.2
Thanks to Saragani for the new functions like "Getting on queue" on more than one bot 
on more than one network at the same time. Also added menu for requesting a pack from a bot (from pack 1 to 20),
and the queue manager not only tells you your position, but also the time left until downloading.

-3.1 BETA
Kick ass new functions which allows you to add bot nicks and disable/enable
XDCC Klipper for certain Networks.

- 3.0 
Thanks to DC_Playa on Criten.net for the Search 
Part. Many people wanted that feature. Everything Else is the same 

-2.0
OK. No more Repeats. Added Functions, colors, and Bot nicks
