It's very probably it is a false positive that has to do with our installer/packer software. Future editions will not be compressed using this so we can avoid this issue. Not sure just when they will make this change in the releasing scripts, though. IIRC it's already changed. But it seems very unlikely given it is compiled on wine on a dedicated user ... conceivably it could be infected if the compiler was infected when I downloaded it but I'd think we'd have heard about that before now; and it seems very unlikely anyway. IMHO it is more likely that either: - It is a false positive. Scan it with a different anti-virus program. IMHO this is the most likely reason; some virus signatures are very broad and pick up things they shouldn't. OR: - The file was tampered with before it got to you e.g. by a malicious proxy. If you can get a copy on a clean system, it would be useful if you could compute ths SHA1 or SHA256 hash of the file, or just upload it somewhere, so we can compare it to the original. signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part. ___ Support mailing list Support@freenetproject.org http://news.gmane.org/gmane.network.freenet.support Unsubscribe at http://emu.freenetproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/support Or mailto:support-requ...@freenetproject.org?subject=unsubscribe

No way of updating works for me, FN has been whirling all night in a loop of restarting the old version and finding that it needs to be updated. But I got it working again, and decided to give FMS a try. Dl'd it over FN, started it. It gave me a DOS window 'FMS is started'. On the config page http://localhost/8080 only a blank page came up.

[freenet-support] Freenet 0.7.5 build 1263
Freenet 0.7.5 build 1263 is now available. Please upgrade. Please let me know if there is a problem with upgrading, and tell us about any problems, ideally by filing bugs but I watch FMS lately, and will soon be back on Freetalk. Changes include: - Lots of client layer bugfixes. Hopefully big splitfiles, and various other things, will work a bit better now. Stalls should be much less common, downloads should either succeed or fail, unless the data really isn't there. There are likely to be more bugs that haven't been fixed yet though, as always ... - Small changes to load limiting, to try to prevent feedback loops where the node thinks it has high overhead so it accepts few requests so it stays at high overhead... - French translation update. - Add http://127.0.0.1:/downloads/listFetchKeys.txt - just a plain text list of all the keys being fetched. Might be useful for some people's backups etc. - Various other bugfixes. signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part. ___ Support mailing list Support@freenetproject.org http://news.gmane.org/gmane.network.freenet.support Unsubscribe at http://emu.freenetproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/support Or mailto:support-requ...@freenetproject.org?subject=unsubscribe
