General Information

This release is based on the all-new AutoPatcher 5.0. Although it was made with Windows XP SP2 English in mind, it will load on any (English) Windows version, showing only the items which match the running environment. There are also special releases for Greek, Dutch and Portuguese (Thanks gandolas!) Windows.

Things missing

a. Hacked files
Since I had to work on this release by myself, I decided not to include any hacked files. This means you will not find any uxtheme or tcpip fix. Of course, modules can be done for those later.

b. Messenger Plus!
After numerous posts regarding Microsoft's Anti-Spam finding spyware in the Messenger Plus! setup file, I decided it would be better to remove Messenger Plus! from AutoPatcher. Sorry.

Torrents

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!

To connect to an FTP server actively with FileZilla, here are some tips.

Check out the options under Firewall Settings. Make sure "Passive Mode" is not checked.

Make sure your firewall allows FileZilla to "act as a server".

If you are behind a router, make sure you have a/some port(s) forwarded to your computer, and configured in "Limit local ports used by FileZilla". Also make sure to set "Use the following IP Address for non-passive transfers" to your internet IP address.

Is this the next release after August 04?

Has support for SP1 been stopped or will this also update me?

585661086[/snapback]

No, there were Jan and Feb releases, but you only need this one, AFAIK.

Dont mean to sound stupid but what is Different in this version from the last one?  I JUST Did a Full re-install about 2-3 weeks ago with the other version...

585661273[/snapback]

the newest updates from MS :yes:

after Aug04, you have jan05, then feb05, then mar05.

but you only need mar05 because it contains everything in jan05 and feb05, plus more and updated versions.

this release will work on sp0 or sp1, however it doesnt contain pre sp2 updates and so there wont be many available for you to install.

You really should have sp2 by now, but i wont start explaining why here.

you can pm me or read/ask elsewhere in the forum if you want to know

this release contains everything that was in jan05 and feb05, and more, updated stuff.

The answer to whether you can skip this is no! theres stuff in here that wasnt in the previous releases or in extras for them.

585661493[/snapback]

although im not certain raptor hasnt found more updates to include, m$ announced there wouldnt be any updates this month.

but it is still necessary to get this version because it has lots of updated stuff thats not available anywhere else.

Thanks for the usual good work. To clarify this is a new release for but not only SP2 users right?

And those anyone have ed2k links for this release?

585662184[/snapback]

This release is aimed at sp2 users, there are no pre sp2 updates included.

there may be a few updates that you can install but most of them wont be available on a none sp2 system.

but again, i wont start explaining why theres no reason not to have sp2 here.

you can pm me or read/ask elsewhere in the forum if you want to know

I didn't seem to have any problems updating my 2 SP1 machines...

585662376[/snapback]

no problem, but your missing out on all the updaates released after sp1, before sp2.

and not all of the updates in AP will show themselves in a none sp2 machine.
