icon11.gif BitTorrent is a P2P system that makes transfering large files (or groups of files) amongst a large group of people easy, fast and efficient. The BitTorrent network is impressive mostly for the speed and reliability with which you get files that have been recently released. As long as a .torrent file has enough people sharing then you can be assured that it will start quickly and maintain a good download speed. Always remember to leave your BitTorrent client open to help distribute the files!

Thanks! :)

Here is a Rapidshare Mirror if anyone wants it

December 2006 Update

That's not really how things work, just to let you know. Us mirrors can usually take the load of distributing the files without resorting to using free services, but thanks!

Q: Would it be helpful if i uploaded AutoPatcher to as many free hosting services as possible and give out the links?

A: No not really, we may occasionally use free hosting services but AutoPatcher requires a lot of bandwidth and we dont want to wear them out. I (theblazingangel) remember when i first visited this forum, the team were looking for mirrors and i offered to do this. I think i was ignored for being such a noob

^ dotnet 2 has been replaced by dotnet 3! note that dotnet 3 is just a copy of dotnet 2 packed up with a load of extra components, so theres no point in having dotnet 2 as well, and also note that you need to install dotnet 2 updates on top of it! maybe i should add a note about this in the new pinned 'releases' thread...

Thank you! downloading now and will be installing asap on my freshly formatted rig.

Not forgetting Merry Christmas All! hope you have a good one...

I've noticed that "Cumulative Security Update for Outlook Express for Windows XP (KB923694)" is included in the December release but it doesn't show up in the 'Critical Updates' listing and as such does not install. After running the AutoPatcher, Windows Update wants to install KB923694. Has anyone else experienced this?

I've noticed that "Cumulative Security Update for Outlook Express for Windows XP (KB923694)" is included in the December release but it doesn't show up in the 'Critical Updates' listing and as such does not install. After running the AutoPatcher, Windows Update wants to install KB923694. Has anyone else experienced this?

I edited the module and changed the Internet Explorer version from 'IE6' to 'ANY_IE' and now the module shows up (as unofficial though). Will there be an 'official' fix for this soon?

@coultone, KB923694 as far as i know is just for IE6 and as such should show up in AutoPatcher and Windows/Microsoft Update only when you have IE6. I presume you have IE7 and so if its showing up for you on Windows/Microsoft Update i can only assume its a mistake, either with Windows/Microsoft Update or with the updates MS bulletin article, if the latter i will of course issue an immediate fix since its a critical update.

Thanks for that. As far as I can gather from the KB923694 bulletin article is that the update is OS specific and not IE specific. It applies to all versions of 2K/XP/2K3. I guess that because it's an Outlook Express update, which is still installed even with IE7, it should apply to IE7 installations. I eagerly await the fix.

@coultone, IE6 included in the 2k release also installs OE6, so i wrongly made the assumption that IE7 installed OE7 hence the IE6 dependency i put on the OE6 update. i've created a fix, i'll upload it and make it public shortly, bare with me...

u thing that i have to get the English version of windows to have the right autopatcher.F**k and i have the Greek version of windows and i have to see greek autopatcher about 2 months now..... :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry:

btw thnx for the all good job that you are making guys!!!!!!

c ya!!!!

    • Quantum Error Correction Validated in Nature: Microsoft and Quantinuum Log 800-Fold Improvement Two years after the original press-release announcement, independently peer-reviewed results published in Nature on June 10, 2026, have confirmed that Microsoft and Quantinuum achieved an 800-fold reduction in quantum error rates on real trapped-ion hardware — the largest gap between physical and logical error rates ever independently validated.    What Quantum Error Correction Actually Does — and Why Breaking Even Is Hard https://www.techtimes.com/articles/318329/20260613/quantum-error-correction-validated-nature-microsoft-quantinuum-log-800-fold-improvement.htm   Quantum Computing Wiring Bottleneck Cracked by HKU Silicon Carbide Chip at Qubit Temperature Engineers at the University of Hong Kong have built the first cryogenic control chip that operates at the same temperature as superconducting qubits — 10 millikelvin, or just one-hundredth of a degree above absolute zero — without generating the heat that has forced every competing approach to park its electronics hundreds of meters of cable away. https://www.techtimes.com/articles/318325/20260613/quantum-computing-wiring-bottleneck-cracked-hku-silicon-carbide-chip-qubit-temperature.htm  
    • RevPDF 4.5.0 by Razvan Serea RevPDF is a free, fully offline PDF editor for Windows, macOS, and Linux that lets you edit text and images directly inside PDF files — no internet connection, no account, and no cloud uploads required. Unlike bloated alternatives that demand subscriptions and constant connectivity, RevPDF fits in under 60MB on desktop while delivering a complete editing toolkit: annotate, redact, sign, compress, split, merge, convert, and reorganize pages, all processed locally on your device. Smart font matching ensures edited text blends seamlessly with the original, and multi-language support includes RTL scripts such as Arabic and Hebrew. Where most PDF editors force you to choose between features and simplicity, RevPDF manages both. You can build interactive forms from scratch with text fields, checkboxes, and dropdowns, permanently redact sensitive data before sharing, draw freehand on contracts and diagrams, and add custom watermarks — all without a single file leaving your machine. Edit Text and Images Directly Inside PDFs RevPDF supports true inline PDF editing — not just annotation layers on top of a document, but actual modification of existing text and images within the file. A smart font-matching engine identifies the font used in the original document and applies it automatically when you make edits, so changes blend naturally with the surrounding content. You can reposition elements, resize images, and update text across single pages or entire documents. RevPDF 4.5.0 release notes: This is one of the biggest updates to RevPDF yet. A lot of things people have been asking for are finally here. New Features Auto Redaction Permanently redact sensitive text and areas from your PDFs before sharing. Clean, irreversible, and fully offline. Comments, Links & Bookmarks Add comments for review, insert clickable links, and create bookmarks to jump around long documents without scrolling forever. Find & Replace Search across the whole document and replace text in one go. Long overdue. Split Pages Vertically or Horizontally Split any page down the middle, vertically or horizontally. Perfect for scanned books or double-page spreads. New Drawing Tools More tools for freehand drawing and markup, better for annotations, sketches, and detailed notes. Continuous Scrolling in Editor The editor now scrolls continuously through pages instead of jumping between them. Working through long documents is a lot smoother now. PDF Metadata Editor View and edit the metadata stored inside your PDFs, including title, author, subject, and keywords. Better Font Matching Text edits now blend in more naturally by doing a better job of matching the original font. Tabbed PDF Viewer Open multiple PDFs at once in tabs and switch between them without going back to the home screen. Add Links Insert hyperlinks anywhere in your PDF, to external URLs or to other pages within the document. Share & Print Shortcuts Share or print directly from the editing screen, home screen, and viewer. No extra steps. Minor Updates Paste images directly from clipboard into your PDF New image editing tools for more control over images inside documents Bug Fixes Fixed file saving issues on Windows and Linux Everything still works fully offline. No login, no cloud, no account. Your files stay on your device.
