Bugs Reported:

- Not working well on multi-processer NT machine.
- Screen display is dithered on 256 color display
- Search results list: if you have something selected (like the 3rd row)
and you stop the search and do a new search the rows that were selected in
the old search are still selected in the new search ... this means that you
may download something you're not interested in
- there are a few problems with the downloads, ie requesting it to stop,
but it still keeps running.
- if you abort a download, it removed it from the list, yet it continues to
download. When I attempt to delete the filename.ext.dl from my download
folder, I get access denied. When I view properties for the file, I notice
that it is in fact growing still. This is reproducable if you try to start a
file downloading, then stop it before it start. It will still connect and
download, all invisible.
