- Minor graphic changes to display error in Alert Dialogs.
2.1 :
- New Preferences management (100% Cocoa/XML). More flexible and powerful.
- Display the upload rate per user in KBytes/s. You'll know at what REAL speed do you upload to each user !
- Default Priority works. You can set a default low priority for all guests and a higher one for each account holders !.

2.0beta/2.0/2.0.1 :
- Correctly save Settings at the end of a Session if necessary (sorry).
- New Feature : CarraFix has a Priority Mode where you can manage bandwidth per user ! Your own client uploads are now manageable too !

- You can have REAL-TIME information on the users : what are their IP adress and since when do they download, all in a unique view.
- The visual gauges are now rightfully flushed. No more full jauges when there is no activity.
- Many bug fixes and optimization : less CPU and RAM are consumed : The final 2.0 version add many other optimizations compared to the beta. On my G4/400, Global Mode use less than 1% of the CPU.
- Smoother discontinuity of the upload/downloads when quitting CarraFix.
- The users listed in the drawer don't disappear anymore and CarraFix keep their priority during the session.
