Publisher's Review:
Soulseek 1.56c is a unique ad-free, spyware free, and just plain free file sharing application.
One of the things that makes
Soulseek unique is our community and community-related features. Based on peer-to-peer technology, virtual rooms allow you to meet people with the same interests, share information, and chat freely using real-time messages in public or private.
Soulseek 1.57 NS 13e, with its built-in people matching system, is a great way to make new friends and expand your mind!
please note: the test version connects to a smaller, faster server that is
separate from the main server. although there are less people on the test server, the search functionality is much improved and search results often rival those on the main server. additionally, the test client offers numerous optimizations and bug fixes over the release client relating to almost every aspect of functionality. if for any reason you would like to connect to the main server, the release client is available for download below. both test and release clients may be installed and run side by side.
regarding privileges: if you intend to donate, and are interested in receiving privileges on both the main and test server, please make sure you have the same username registered on both servers before donating. if you are having any difficulties regarding privileges, please file a privileges problem report using the Options->Privileges Status->Report privileges problem menu option in the release client.
Changelog:
(Soulseek version 1.57 NS 13e)
- Search engine exploit patched. Exploit could be used by a modified client to crash another client remotely, and possibly execute custom code by creating a stack overflow. Thanks to Laurent Gaffié (http://g-laurent.blogspot.com/) for discovering the exploit and sending us exact instructions on how to reproduce it!
