Couple of bugs in 0.4.6 perhaps

Been using it for a couple of days now, mostly quite happy.

Two problems I'm having at the minute.

- I use 3 usenet servers, each connecting via a different modem. My router handles which server goes to which modem. In total 30 connections are opened. Sab mostly seems to cope with this, but after a while will no longer opens connections to 2 of the 3 servers. Those connections are still fine and live as a quick test with alt.binz opens 30 connections again. At this stage I try a shutdown of sab to resolve the problem.

- Which leads to 2nd bug. When pressing shutdown in sab, it goes to initiating shutdown screen, and hangs. I have to end the process manually. The memory usage is right down, and cpu is 0 so it's sitting there doing nothing. On restarting sab I usually get full usenet server access again.

Otherwise performance is excellent, exceeding my other usenet programs. Very low system resource usage as well, which I found a problem in previous versions. Am running on Windows 7 beta. Have just amended the shortcut to sab to run in compatibility mode with full admin rights to see if it's make a difference.

1st part no clue

2nd part:

sab tries to close it's connections to the news-server, but can't because probably alt.bins and sab combined are just herassing the news-server too much. and thus "computer sais no" (sabnzbd sits by idleing waiting for connections to close). does this also happen when you just close sab without fist starting alt.bins? if so then the server is just having an issue me thinks.

Good luck
