eMule Plus 1.2d

eMule Plus is a filesharing client which is based on the eDonkey2000 network.
eMule Plus is an evolution of the original eMule project, created to improve its abilities and features, in both work efficiency and user interface. By offering its code to free distribution and modification, eMule invites people to collaborate as much as possible to improve this excellent program.

Here are some key features of eMule plus plus:

Completely Free: eMule Plus is an open source project and free software, as well as it doesn't contain any spyware, adware or the like.
Improved GUI: the client has been redesigned to have a more intuitive and appealing GUI. Servers, Transfers and Statistics windows has been revamped for better screen usage and greater customization.
Web Server: originally conceived in eMule Plus but now on official this 'light' interface is useful to remotely control your client. It's evolving each day, adding features to make it better while not making it a resource hog. We have some extended features as Intruder Detection, A4AF support, a graphical queue list, client version information, automatic compression support (gzip) and much more. eMule XP and eMule Light templates are now included in the main distribution as eye candy or simplified interfaces to our Web Server. Templates are optimized to reduce required traffic while keeping compatibility with different browsers.
Better Interface Design: we take special care in the interface design, so you won't see any misplaced box or a cut string. Images used in our client and sites are done the best way possible by Graphic Designers to be more appealing and meaningful.
Localization: eMule Plus has its own team of translators localizing new strings. Currently supported languages: Basque, Belarusian, Catalan, ChineseSimplified, ChineseTraditional, Croatian, Czech, Danish, Dutch, English, Extremaduran, Finnish, French, German, Greek, Hebrew, Italian, Korean, Lithuanian, Malay, Norwegian, Polish, Portuguese (Brazil), Portuguese (Portugal), Romanian, Russian, Slovenian, Spanish, Turkish, Ukrainian.
Static Servers Priority: priority for static servers can be changed from the GUI without users having to change the configuration files directly.
Rating/Comments of Files: a better rating information has been added to help users to get an idea of the file rating. With several levels of quality and a special icon to inform users about fakes. This system accumulates ratings of remote users and calculates an average value shown to you in the thermometer style.
Upload Progress: a different and improved upload progress bar is used to give a better glimpse of the status of a client downloading from you. It shows the number of parts each client has as well as currently downloading part.
A4AF (Asked for Another File) Management: the ed2k protocol allows only one file to be transferred at the same time from a single client, so other requests to the same user are queued until the transferring file is completed. Our client shows you sources that have been requested for other files in each single file sources list and allows you to force them to switch to another file.
Stored Sources: when you close your client for long periods sources are lost. Most of them can be recovered with the sources exchange protocol but for rare files the obtained sources from other sessions can be lost. Stored Sources allows you to store sources in a file to be retrieved again when you restart your client.
Better Client Information: client software as well as the status is shown with different mule icons. Different colors related to the official color of the software are used to give a better insight on the client type distribution in your queues and the status of the clients you connect to or those connecting to you. Credits, friends and banning statuses are also shown with different icon modifications.
Download Queue Progress: queue progress is shown with color coding (progression, regression or the same position) and information about how many positions were gained or lost after previous source status check.
Destination Directory: you can set a different (from the main incoming directory) destination directory for every downloading file. After completion, a file will be transferred to that directory.
Improved Search: you can search files not containing strings. There is also support for FileDonkey and eMugle web service searches. The selected search method is also retained between sessions, so you won't need to change it to your preferred choice every time you start a new search.
Enhanced Information for Search Results: additional information is available providing the date when servers saw a complete source for the specific file last time. This information can be very helpful during file selection as it shows the risk of staying with incomplete file. Media information (length, bitrate and codec) is provided for media content files in search results. Average file rating (comments are unaccessible) collected by servers is available as well together with the estimation of the number of voted users.
Related Files Search: a related search gives the files that are the most published by the clients who share the given file. It can be used to detect related (companion) files, but also anomalies in files distribution.
Part Traffic: spreading information in p2p applications is vital. Knowing which files are already well spread and which are not is something that releasers request a lot. This information can be obtained from the clients currently downloading from you or by storing all transfers information. The Plus team believe that the second method is better because you know how your client actively performed.
Part Status: sometimes, old and not well designed clients asks for parts which are already well spread while not asking for rare parts. This isn't useful for the network because files need more time to be spread. With this in mind a feature that allows you to disable access to these parts has been bundled in the client.
JumpStart: the initial release of a file is mostly chaotic. The problem is that some parts of the file are transferred hundred of times while others are not transferred at all. JumpStart automatically controls a release while supervising the spread of the different chunks by hiding well spread parts. This is an automated and intelligent process.
Small and Rare Files Boost: higher score for rare and small file requests in waiting queue, what increases chances to upload rare files as well as faster spread small files.
Shell Menu: for shared files a shell menu is provided bringing you the file handling options supported by the operating system.
Double-click Behavior: provides a possibility to configure the double-click action for sources and files, letting a user decide which way is better.
Font Configuration: allows customization of the font style and size used within IRC/chat/log windows.
Smooth File Completion: while using a custom made copy routine instead of not quite performing system one, completing files now let you with a much more responsive system.
Message Filtering: allows you to disable messages containing filtered words from being shown. There is an option to keep them in the log.
Comment Filtering: allows you to disable comments containing filtered words from being shown. There is an option to keep them in the log.
Intelligent Chunk Request (ICR): the Intelligent Chunk Request system allows faster file downloading by concentrating on the rarest and (or) complete chunks.
Banning Configuration: you're mad at aggressive clients or you're soft and don't want to ban anybody. We allow a certain degree of customization and even the disabling of the feature.
Community Sharing: to improve the spreading of files between communities, Plus includes an option to set a community priority. This feature doesn't mean you will download only to community users, but that they will get a little scoring advantage.
Download Autopriority Settings: autopriority limits can be customized regarding your downloading style.
Main Process Priority: you can set the client to be run on a higher priority if you use processor demanding applications affecting eMule Plus. This way your download/upload speed won't be dropped when an application hogs your processor. Note: this high priority has less effect than OS process priority configured in Task Manager.
Hashing Priority: the hashing process is a resource hog task. You can set different priorities for it, but take in account that a lower priority will give you a more responsive system while the hashing process will last a little longer.
