[Hyperz]

Back after nearly a year of silence. Most peeps here will know what this is but just in case you don't: #Leech is a free, fast (if not: fastest) and automated forum leecher. It reads topics from big warez sites and posts it to another forum. This is a continuation of the recently released #Leech Build Kit source.

Changes since Beta #2:

• Fixed support for Warez-BB.
  
• Fixed support for PornBB.
  
• Fixed support for BayW.
  
• Fixed support for WarezScene.
  
• Fixed some minor GUI corruption bug under Vista/7
  
• Improved exception (error) handling. It now no longer causes the leeching to stop, instead it dumps the errors to a log file.
  
• Updated the iRadio tab.
  
• Added support for adding custom radio stations, playlists and music files.
  
• Improved duplicate thread posting prevention.
  
• Added IRC functionality (work-in-progress).
  
• Added Stats (work-in-progress).
  
• Added the ability to logout, it no longer requires an app reboot.
  
• Vastly improved overall stability.

Current 1.0.1 todo list:

• Add support for "reversed leeching"
  
• Add some basic support for SEO'd url's
  
• Finalize IRC functionality
  
• Replace the huge image on the Stats tab with a realtime graph and make the Reset button work
  
• Make some changes to the About tab
  
• Add more sites
  
• Start asynchronous implementation of the working thread for potential 400% speedboost

Performance:
The main factor that determines the leeching speed is the site being leeched from/to. If the leeching is slow, it's most likely because of the site being slow. Second factor is your internet speed but it is unlikely that this will become a bottleneck at any given time. Once asynchronous support is done it will depend more on your net speed.

Important:

• Do not count on me for support, though I might help a bit here and there you should count on the community for support. So don't PM with your problems.
  
• Don't ask me to add your site to the list, not gonna happen. Unless it gets chosen.
  
• Suggestions are always welcome. Whether or not they get actually implemented will depend on the dev time they require and on the actual idea.
  
• If you post to or leech from a vB forum you need to make sure you don't use the WYSIWYG editor, you need to select the normal one in your settings.

The competition:
iLeech, TRF wants-to-look-like-#Leech-Leecher, Warez4Ever and the rest of the family I forgot (Especially PHP leechers).

Sticky: Once again a great Job Hyperz,

Regards

Very nice Hyperz. It is much more stable.

Good job!

[Plaxxx]

Works great. Well done Hyperz.

[stefan-te]

Nice job, but can u make to post with forums that requires Prefix(vBulletin) thanks!

[Cataclysm]

Respect for the final version! But one thing I really need, like stefan-te:

Nope for 2 reasons:
- every forum can have different prefixes end trying to find out which one to use code-wise is a pain in the ***
- SL isn't meant to be used on some1 else his site but rather site owners who want to add some starting content to a new site etc

Furthermore the objective is to keep it simple and not make it bloated with tiny - for the most part useless - futures.

A random video I made to approximate the kind of speed that could be achieved by making the program asynchronous:

[techiekaran]

Great tool Hyperz....But, can we use let's say 5 windows at the same time to post even more with the same account?

[Hyperz]

Yes you can. But that wasn't the point of the video really. What the video is meant to show is the speed that would be achieved by making the 'engine' of the program async. Meaning that if the engine is rewritten to be async 1 windows/instance of the program would go as fast as 4 do now. And actually 4 is not a limit, it could be 20 and so on. Hope this isn't to confusing lol. Simply put, adding async calls to sharpleech can potentially make sharpleech much faster.

Implementing all of that takes quite a lot of work though so I'm not sure when this will be done or in what version it'll be implemented.

[techiekaran]

Hey Hyperz...I have been leeching using #leech for 2 hours. I ran 4 windows simultaneously and i was as smooth as butter. But, I could post just 1200 threads. In the video you posted much more. How can this happen? I know that the secret is in the reply:

But, it just flew over my head.

Last thing, I can help you test the next version!!
