Better BearShare 5.1.0b25
 

I've made today a Setup which includes:

• BearShare Beta - The Main Software (unconfigured, as if it was installed with the original Installer)
• BearShare Run Utility - A Special Utility, while Bearstart resets the System Time, so every Application will get the Wrong Time for a few Seconds, this Utility just changes the Time for bearshare not affecting other Applications. (Does not even needs administrative Rights to work)
• Connection Cache - The newest connection Cache Files

The User does not needs to copy or change anything manually, everything is done with the Installer.
Please note that you still need to activate the "Forced Ultrapeer" in the Settings.
Download from HERE <-- I've hosted it on my Server so there is no Download limit or a wait time, the Download is SSL secured.
If you like to have the direct Link, here it is

For the Time changing Utility, refer to RunAsDate - Run a program with the specified date/time. There you'll also find the x64 Build, just replace the BearRun.exe with the x64 Version (this Fix is untested)
The Installer already contains the x86 Build of RunAsDate, if you have a 32 Bit OS, you do not need to change anything, just launch BearShare from one of the shrtcuts created.

Hope this makes your Life easier!

I've verified it with "Microsoft Security Essentials" and "Symantec endpoint protection".
The Author of RunAsDate writes: AVG Antivirus reports that RunAsDate is infected with "Trojan horse Generic 10.THK".
I am not sure if this issue is already solved.

No Files were changed and all still have the original checksum (except the connection cache which was replaced with a new one)

Tested under Windows XP and Windows 7 (both 32 Bit x86)

IMPORTANT!
Windows Vista/Windows 7 users need to do the folowing:
Right Click the Bearshare Icon on the Desktop and select Properties.
On the Compatibility Tab, select "Run as Administrator".
If you do not do this you'll have to configure Bearshare every Time it Runs

down loaded this file. installer has a virus.

Virus
 

As written above, the Installer contains the RunAsDate Executable which causes a false Positive alert on some AntiVirus Systems.
Please tell me the Anti Virus you are using and post some information from the Alert Dialog and I try to solve the issue.

What virus and using which scanner/antivirus?

Video File
 

I've also uploaded now a video File showing me installing the File: https://ayra.ch/temp/proof.avi
There is also an online Virus check with the File: http://www.virustotal.com/de/analisi...be0-1275934967

Maybe his AV displays an alert because Inno Setup compresses its setups with UPX

When two online scan sites say the file is clean and one single user doesn't have anything better than "Installer has a virus", then we take it as clean. For that matter it may even be someone from the sold out bearshare, who reported it as a virus to some antivirus vendor.

using norton internet security virus name is ws.reputation.1 risk is listed as medium. sleepless i did not mean to caus a problem. i wont post on here again.

It wasn't meant like that. It's just that without the info you just provided, there is nothing to be done. With this info I can tell you right away that it's one of many false positives from NIS.

Read more here: Re: What is WS.Reputation.1? - Norton Community

Edit: I especially loved this reply in that thread (page 11):

I'll second the advice to use security software with a Russian sounding name...Kaspersky...

OMG you should seriously read up on this and then consider if you will ever use Norton again.

They call pretty much any file that they don't know, which less than 10 users have used for ws.reputation.1 and then it gets up until lately force deleted i.e. a catch22

@Peerless

I recommend it as well, well that or NOD32 or if the user want a free one the Comodo Internet Security with the sandbox disabled. That sandbox is definitely not for people without computer savvy
