• A checkbox on the Server tab in the settings enables SSL.
• Clicking the Stop button or closing Binary Boy during a refresh merges the new headers instead of discarding them.

Build #544
• Binary Boy failed to recognize when a rar set was complete when the filename was in the older .rxx format.

Build #543
• If you associate NZB files with Binary Boy and double-click a file, Binary Boy will load the NZB even if it already has a session open.

Build #542
• In most situations, Binary Boy will assemble a split file (.001, .002, .003, ...) even when no .000 segment is present.

Build #541
• The XML parser was too strict when parsing processing instructions. Fixed.

Build #540
• Order ids dated after Nov 2005 weren't recognized. They've now been added.

Build #539
• The Binary Boy 1.9x project now uses a lot more of the 2.0 code. On the surface this won't change much, but it should be easier to add new features to both versions at the same time.
• The upgrade files now require a reg key or an order id to activate. If you don't have your order id, retrieve it here.
• Displays number of requested headers on Log tab when refreshing.
• The queue total size in build 450 was wrong for large values. Fixed.

Build #466
• Either a news server or a firewall is adding empty lines in uudecoded posts, causing truncated files. Binary Boy will ignore these empty lines and create complete files.

Build #463
• You can now pass an NZB filename on the command-line and Binary Boy will open an empty search session, load the NZB file and start downloading. This also means you can now associate NZB files with Binary Boy.
• Fixed the "posiition" typo in an XML error message.

Build #450
• Queue is slightly more efficient under heavy loads.

Build #410
• A space character between the headers and the first line of encoded data would cause Binary Boy to stop decoding a file. Fixed.

Build #408
• The queue's Load NZB command uses the first newsgroup from the NZB file that can be found in the master list. If none can be found, it falls back to using the first.

• Launch rules are saved to binboy.xml
• Help pages added for Launcher tab and rule editor.

Build #323
• Binary Boy can run an application after each download based on the filename. Add launch rules on the Launcher tab in the settings.
• Right now it will NOT save your rules when you exit, it will NOT wait for the application to close and there is no help page yet.
• Alt-Shift-S searches without refreshing.

Build #161
• If the delete button in the viewer fails, it now logs an error nummber in errorlog.txt.

Build #155
• The low memory check might be returning inaccurate values on pre-XP OSes so it will now ignore the value on those OSes.
