- Download selected files and folders compressed with Tar/Gzip
- Delete multiple files and folders
- Stream selected MP3 files (Basic Icecast implementation)

- Viewing files works now with IE, Opera, Konqueror, Netscape and Mozilla
- Edit MP3 tag
- Possible to edit file if content is text
- File and directory descriptions

New languages include russian and thai. Updated languages are galician,
italian, finnish, swedish, spanish and german.

In addition, we have fixed a lot of bugs and added several new features not
