Cool Nice work, some small problems

I've been using Qtella for quite some time now, and I really like it (esp. now that more and more users are pooping up in Gnutella network thanks to MusicCity/Morpheus) ;-)

I got some small problems though:
1) Qtella 0.4.0 crashes after I right-click and select "block host" in the context menu at any ongoing upload.

2) What is "HostCache" tab for and how does it work? I selected "Enable HostCache" but it doesn't do anything.

3) If I want to resume an incomplete download, Qtella starts a new one!

4) Just a small thing but next version should list Morpheus (MRPH) and Gnucleus (GNUC) in the Stats tab - it looks like 40-50% of Gnutella users are now on Morpheus! ;-)

Hi,
I have added 1), 2) and 4) to the bug and feature request list.

3)
In general a host cache is a server which accepts connections of gnutella clients and disconnects after delivering some ip addresses of other clients being currently online.
Then your client tries to establish connections to these clients to get connected to the Gnutella network.
Therefore, a host cache is usually the entry point to the Gnutella network. The more host caches exist the better for the Gnet. (there are other strategies to get connected but this is the most important one).
That's the reason why I have decided to implement a host cache with Qtella.

The Qtella HostCache listens by default on port 6347 and acts like a real host cache. It collects ip addresses of other clients while you're connected to the Gnet and delivers them to clients which connect to port 6347.
Of course, a host cache doesn't make sense for ordinary users who are not online 24h/d and do not own a static ip. These users may disable the HostCache.
