+Option to update compilations automatically after loading
+Mixed mode CDs can now also be copied (the audio part)

*Change “Cancel” to “Close” when appropriate

!Fixed wrong selection dialog for the update location
!Fixed auto import default value
!Fixed incorrect default button (“no”) for a save compilation message box

- Fixed Save As issue in excel/word when “cache temporary files” was enabled and the user selected to create a new folder in the save as dialog for excel/word and the folder was named with all numbers, i.e. 2009 then Word was unable to save the file because WebDrive treated the folder creation as a temporary file.
- Fixed issue in 8.23 for DAV and uploading large files using the setting “Enable chunked upload for large files” which is on by default. Many servers do not support chunked file upload and in version 8.23 when this setting was enabled it uploaded all files rather than just files larger than 1 GB. Version 8.24 resets to the previous webdrive behavior of uploading in chunked mode for files grater than 1 GB.
- Fixed hang issue that could freeze explorer and the system, seen most often on Vista SP1 but could happen on other systems as well.
- Fixed IIS / NTLM authentication issue that resulted in errors renaming or uploading files when using Auto DAV locking on persistent connections.
- Fixed Offline synchronization issue when editing a word file offline and then performing a synchronize operation that resulted in a “Server modified copy” file being created when the file was not actually modified on the server by another user.
- Fixed Offline issue where folders or files that were previously marked offline could lose their status as “offline” files.
- Added support for French FTP servers that don’t support the MLSD command. Webdrive can now parse the unix date listing that contains month names in french.
- Changed auto dav lock behavior to NOT take out a DAV lock when an application is doing byte range locks if the file extension is not in the user supplied extension list.
- Changed FTP symbolic link resolve logic to use the link name instead of the path when determining if a link is for a file or folder.

libpurple:
* Fix a crash when removing an account with an unknown protocol id.
* Beta support for SSL connections for AIM and ICQ accounts. To enable, check the “Use SSL” option from the Advanced tab when editing your AIM or ICQ account. (Paul Aurich)
* Fix a memory leak in SILC. (Luke Petre)
* Fix some string handling in the SIMPLE prpl, which fixes some buddy name handling and other issues. (Paul Aurich, Marcus Sundberg)
* Implement support for resolving DNS via the SOCKS4 proxy (SOCKS4a).

ICQ:
* Fix retrieval of status messages from users of ICQ 6.x, Miranda, and other libpurple clients. (Daniel Ljungborg)
* Change client ID to match ICQ Basic 14.34.3096. This fixes publishing of buddy icons and available messages.
* Properly publish status messages for statuses other than Available. ICQ 6.x users can now see these status messages. (Daniel Ljungborg)
* Fix receipt of messages from the mobile client Slick. (David Jedelsky)

MSN:
* Fix transfer of buddy icons, custom smileys, and files from the latest Windows Live Messenger 9 official client. (Thomas Gibson-Robinson)
* Large (multi-part) messages are now correctly re-combined.
* Federated/Yahoo! buddies should now stop creating sync issues at every signin. You may need to remove duplicates in the Address Book. See the FAQ for more information. Thanks to Jason Lingohr for lots of debugging and testing.
* Messages from Yahoo! buddies are no longer silently dropped.
* We now save and use the CacheKey for ABCH SOAP requests.
* Don’t try to parse Personal Status Messages or Current Media if they don’t exist.
* Convert from ISO-8859-1 encoding to UTF-8 when no charset is specified on incoming messages. This should fix some issues with messages from older clients.
* Force sending the font “Segoe UI” if outgoing formatting doesn’t specify a font already.
* Queue callbacks when token updates are in progress to prevent two token update attempts from trampling each other.
* Fixed a crash on Windows when removing a buddy’s alias.
* Update the Address Book when buddies’ friendly names change. This prevents seeing an outdated alias or not seeing an alias at all for buddies who are offline when you sign in.
* Update tokens for FindMembership and ABFindAll SOAP requests.
* We no longer try to send empty messages. This could happen when a message contained only formatting and that formatting was not supported on MSN.
* Buddies on both the Allow and Block list are now automatically removed from the Allow list. Users with this problem will now no longer receive an ADL 241 error. The problematic buddy should now appear on the buddy list and can be removed or unblocked as desired.

XMPP:
* Resources using __HOSTNAME__ substitution will now grab only the short hostname instead of the FQDN on systems which put the FQDN in the hostname. (Matěj Cepl)
* No longer send a ‘to’ attribute on an outgoing stanza when we haven’t received one. This fixes a registration bug as described in ticket #6635.
