Two updates in one hit... You'll get them when you next run the application.

Change Log 1.0.0.8
- Altered number of RSS Entries it requests. (1, instead of default of 15). Should reduce size of RSS, DB load, and bandwidth consumed. (Previously around 70KB/minute)

Change Log 1.0.0.9
- Altered method of fetching RSS Feed. Webclient requests Cached copy if available on Server (also adds custom Client header tag, so stats package can account for it).
(No HTTP Proxy support as yet - that's Version 1.0.0.10)

I'm still waiting for the Mac version...

Well, let me know when Satan puts in a bulk-purchase for snow blowers. K?

Does an order for 100 Snow Plow Blades (Sears #07124414000), 275 wheel weights (Sears #07124434000), and 175 tractor snow throwers (Sears #07124846000) count? Cause I just got this order in from a guy that calls himself Lou Cypher. Probably just a coincidence...

Yeah, must be...

1.0.1.0 is coming soon-ish.

Features:
- No updating if screensaver is active (via this method)

- No updating if workstation/desktop is locked (via this method)

- Proxy Support (with Authentication) (Note: May not be able to be deployed with OneClick if you're using an enforced proxy - Blame MS for that)



The reason for the the no-updating times is to reduce the amount of bandwidth it consumes (more from an end-user's perspective, rather than the server at the moment). At the moment, it can use around 1.7GB of bandwidth per month, if left running 24x7. (For me, that's about 6% of my download quota for the month)

I'm also investigating implementing GZip for the RSS Feed, but that'll come after.

Edit: Fixed the first url tag, link working now. (Weresmilodon)
