What's New in TrafficCompressor 0.5 beta

Version 0.5.338

  • Now TrafficCompressor compresses traffic only for the program for that compression is explicitly enabled in the preferences. When TrafficCompressor detects a new program it asks the user whether it is required to enable compression for the program.
  • Improved compability with Apache HTTP Server when Dr.Web antivirus is installed.
  • Improved compability with ZoneAlarm firewall and NVIDIA ActiveArmor Firewall.

Version 0.5 Build 316

  • Improved compatibility with Soulseek.

Version 0.5 Build 314

  • Fixed the error that sometimes caused an AccessViolation error in some .NET Framework based network programs.

Version 0.5 Build 313

  • Fixed the error in the Preferences window on the Programs tab. Sometimes TrafficCompressor did not compress traffic if the program list contained a file name with some special characters (e.g. '+', '(', '[').

Version 0.5 Build 312

  • Improved compatibility with NOD32 antivirus on Windows XP. Sometimes a web browser did not open web pages when TrafficCompressor and NOD32 were installed on the same computer.

Version 0.5 Build 310

  • Improved free server selection when other servers are busy and not accepting new connections due to the large number of the users.
  • Now TrafficCompressor displays a message when TrafficCompressor servers are busy due to the large number of the users.
  • Improved compatibility with Panda Antivirus, Panda Internet Security, ZoneAlarm Antivirus, ZoneAlarm Security Suite, eTrust EZ Antivirus.
  • Now TrafficCompressor supports Fast User Switching and Terminal Services.
  • Added the option "Do not compress pages already compresed with gzip". That option sometimes can speed up loading of the pages that are already compressed by a web server.
  • Fixed the subnet address input function in the preferences on Hosts tab.

Version 0.5 Build 268

  • Fixed a problem with Outpost Firewall. Sometimes TrafficCompressor was not able to connect to the sever just after Windows startup when Outpost Firewall was active.

Version 0.5 Build 264

  • Fixed a program bug as a result of which TrafficCompressor sometimes was abnormally closed with the following message: "Standard C++ error. Error Type: class std::out_of_range".
  • Now TrafficCompressor can be configured to not compress already compressed files like MP3, ZIP, AVI and others. By default traffic compression is disabled for many popular compressed file types. This option can be found in the Preferences window on the File Types tab.
  • Added support for Lineage II and Ragnarok Online.
  • Now TrafficCompressor redirects web traffic to the local 80(HTTP) port to allow some antiviruses and firewalls to block viruses, ads, and pop-ups in the web traffic.
  • Now TrafficCompressor may be configured to not open the local 80(HTTP) and 110(POP3) TCP ports. That may resolve a port conflict with a local web or e-mail server if either of them is used on the computer where TrafficCompressor is installed. To change those settings please go to the "Preferences" window, "Other" tab.
  • Added a help article about speed/traffic optimization modes.
  • Fixed a bug in the program conflicts detection module. Sometimes TrafficCompressor falsely detected a program conflict and displayed the "Program conflict" message when it ran under a non-adminstrative user account.
  • Fixed a bug that sometimes caused abnormal memory consumption and as a result TrafficCompressor crashed with "Out of memory" or similar error message.

Version 0.4 beta

  • [Build 245] Now you can enter IP address ranges and subnet addresses in the list of hosts in the TrafficCompressor preferences. To add an IP address range or a subnet address please go to the "Hosts" tab of the "Preferences" window, click the "Add" button, and select the "IP Range..." or "Subnet.." menu item. Also, you can enter multiple IP address ranges, subnet addresses, and IP addresses at once by selecting the "Multiple Items..." menu item.
  • [Build 240] Fixed a program error. Sometimes TrafficCompressor did not compress any Internet traffic even when it was enabled and connected to the server.
  • [Build 238] Fixed a program error that may cause blocking of SMTP, FTP, and HTTPS traffic on some computers when TrafficCompressor is enabled.
  • This version requires a user name and password.
  • Added experimental support for the following MMORPG's/MPOG's (online games): World of Warcraft, EVE online, MU online, Diablo, Diablo II, Starcraft, Guild Wars, Sphere.
  • Fixed some compatibility problems. Now TrafficCompressor is compatible with Netlimiter on Windows 2000, XP, and 2003 and with some other programs.
  • Improved detection of incompatible programs.
  • Now TrafficCompressor can be configured to not compress Internet traffic generated by some program. By default TrafficCompressor is disabled for several most popular download managers.
  • Added support for some additional IRC ports. Now TrafficCompressor is able to compress IRC traffic for 6667-6670 ports.
  • Now TrafficCompressor does not compress traffic for the following IP address ranges:
    10.0.0.0     - 10.255.255.255
    172.16.0.0  - 172.31.255.255
    192.168.0.0 - 192.168.255.255
    169.254.0.0 - 169.254.255.255
    These IP addresses are always private (used for private networks), and TrafficCompressor server does not have network access to them and, consequently, TrafficCompressor is not able to compress such network traffic.
  • Now TrafficCompressor restores the server connection faster after user's Internet connection has been established or restored after disconnection.
  • The system tray icon animation may be disabled in the Preferences window.
  • Problem fix: when a user downloaded a large file with some programs (e.g. FlashGet, FreshDownload etc) and stopped the downloading then TrafficCompressor continued to download data from the Internet for 1-2 minutes and more. Now Traffic Compressor stops downloading any data if the download has been stopped in a download manager or a web browser.
  • Problem fix: when a user downloaded a large file some other network activity (e.g. web browsing or e-mail receiving.) has been slowed down a lot. Now Traffic Compressor handles such a situation correctly.
  • Now the Compression Statistics data is displayed correctly if a user sets the Windows system font size to "Extra Large".
  • A ballon tip is displayed in the system tray showing the total saved data size every 10 MB of the saved data.

Version 0.3 beta

  • The number of supported network protocols has been decreased. Now TrafficCompressor supports the following protocols: Web (HTTP), incoming e-mail (POP3 and IMAP4), Usenet, IRC, ICQ, Windows Messenger, Yahoo! Messenger, AIM, Jabber, and Gadu-Gadu.
  • The compression statistics for all supported protocols is displayed in "Compression Statistics" window separately.

Version 0.2 beta

  • Compression statistics for IMAP4 e-mail and Usenet traffic has been added. Previous versions counted those types of traffic in the "Other protocols" field.
  • Now TrafficCompressor does not open local 80(HTTP), 25(SMTP), 443(HTTPS), 20(FTP-DATA), and 21(FTP) TCP ports. It opens only local 110(POP3) port to allow antiviruses to detect e-mail traffic to remove viruses from incoming e-mail messages.
  • Balloon tips can be disabled now.
  • Problem fix: TrafficCompressor stopped to transfer any data for 1-2 minutes after a short modem connection break. That behavior appeared mostly on dial-up connections. Now TrafficCompressor correctly handles short modem breaks.
  • Bug fix: TrafficCompressor crashed at start up with a run-time error if an incompatible program has been installed on the same computer. Now TrafficCompressor correctly handles such a situation.
  • "Optimize for better Internet access speed" mode has beed improved.
  • Now TrafficCompressor asks the user before connecting to TrafficCompressor server.
  • Balloon tips have been added.
  • Some minor additions and fixes have been made.
