I've decided to release an ALPHA (incomplete) version of the plugin to the public. Here are the changes:

- Support for firewalled connections (passive transfer mode).
- Ability to set a default save folder.
- Resume go-back to prevent file corruption.
- IP address optionally encrypted (for better security in a multi-user conversation window).
- Plugin generates activity log for troubleshooting.
- Ability to preview media files while the transfer is in progress. If the file bitrate is less than the transfer speed, you'll be able to preview the entire file from the beginning without interruptions.
- Media files can have a different default save folder (overrides global setting).
- Ability to auto-accept file transfers from your friend list or anyone. The file is saved in the default folder.
- Transfer history log for improved management of the received files.
- Checksum optimized (specially for large files). It now uses zLib algorithm.
- Transfer can now be paused/resumed at any time.
- Transfer window optionally closes itself when transfer is complete.
- Default command to send files is now /xtpsend. Other commands are /xtpshare (share plugin) and /xtpabout.
- A lot of bug fixes and other improvements.

These are the things missing in ALPHA release:

- Check to see if the contact already has the plugin installed, otherwise the transfer is done by the Messenger's file transfer.
- Command to check for new plugin updates.
- Automatic compression on-the-fly. This may increase the apparent transfer speed beyound your connection bandwidth.
- Help file.

This version of the plugin is NOT compatible with previous 1.0 versions.

Download the plugin's setup package (706KB) and install over the previous version (close Messenger before installing).

Let me know if you like it

Whens the final coming out? I want those features in bold BAD Also here the default is still /xsendfile. I think Encrypt IP should be defaulted auto. Friends list gotta be improved.....

Also you should consider enabling backwards compatibility. my spanish friends dont update their plugins and its annoying to tell them everytime theres a new version of FTPlus out. If they see the auto update thing theyll problably just say no.

I don't know when it's coming out The default command will only change you didn't have the previous version yet, because it will use the command in the plugin's options (that was set in previous version).

Which kind of improvement for Friends list?

Backwards compatibility is not possible from 1.1 to 1.0, there are too many technical changes to turn that possible. But the future versions will be compatible I hope

Friends list should be more throughly worked.......

think about maybe options listing by email or contact. Also to display the Messenger icon to see what their status is. ect

It need to be reworked from a different angle IMO. Of course this is your plugin so if u want leave it as it is lol

I'll try to do something more beautiful for the next release

Btw I've updated the setup now because, in some cases, the default command could be wrong ("xxtpsend" instead of "xtpsend"). There's no need to update existing installations.

It works very good , only one thing.

When I click on Close this Window when tranfer is complete it closes and that's ok!, but it does not save that you clicked it so next transfer you have to click it again. You'd better make it that it saves it and the next time it automaticly closes the window. And maybe make it go to the sysbar when the transfer starts.

EDIT: Passive mode isn't working for me
         And it doesn't support Polygamy MSN

What's the problem? The transfer does not start?

Passive mode wouldnt work for me eather, i had to turn it off before it worked.. i had fun setting up my modem NAT, and my router port forwards for this to work

The Transfer screen doesn't open at the senders side, and I don't know if it's a bug. But the IP adress is not shown with Passive Mode.

lol it doesn't work for me at all
