Windows/Linux: AmigaDOS Amiga Disk File Checker
With ADFCHK ("AmigaDOS Amiga Disk File Checker") you can check if Amiga-Disk-Images have checksum errors or simple bootblock viruses ("LAMER" is already recognized, "boot-lamer" will follow).
The tool is mainly meant for using in batch files where you want to check many files. There are three corresponding .BAT-scripts for Windows users. The "menu-modus" is still in a very early developing status.
Linux users have to compile ADFCHK for yourself. All required parts are included in the source code archive.

Instant Messenger: SabreMSN Alpha 35
James 'jahc' Carroll has published another update of his Instant Messenger for the MSN-network for AmigaOS 3 and AmigaOS 4 (screenshot). The changes are listed in the changelog.
The author points out that SabreMSN currently only supports the older version of the MSN-protocol for the data exchange. If an incoming transfer is displayed ("Waiting for incoming file..") but it will not start then the sender used the new version of the protocol.

AmigaOS 4: PFTP 0.4
Pete's FTP (screenshot) written by Peter Gordon has been published in version 0.4. The changes in detail:
- When you couldn't connect to a server, PFTP would
hang. Fixed.
- Icon is now a proper Amiga icon. Didn't realise it
was png because i have the png iconmodule installed
and i just copied over the file i got from Mason
and forgot about it.
- Now copes with servers that include a total number
of files with the file listing at the top. Thanks
to Magnus Andersson for his help with this one.
- Now doesn't crash if you click a link in the about
window without OpenURL installed.
- The local browser thread didn't properly keep track
of how many messages it was expecting a reply for,
and could sometimes hang around waiting for
responses it had already received. Fixed.
- If you started some local-to-local transfers, and
one of them failed for any reason, the ones after
it wouldn't start. Fixed.
- Local-to-local transfers that had a read or write
error during transfer were treated as if they
succeeded. Fixed.
- If a transfer failed, it would be silently added to
the failed transfer list, and an error message
printed in the log. This is easily missed during
bulk transfers. Now there is an error log for errors
that occur during transfers, which pops up to let you
know something went wrong. Items in bold are new
ones since the last time the error log window was
closed. Thanks to Mario Cattaneo for making me get
around to this finally :)
- Improved the error handling and detection for SFTP.
- If you selected more than one directory, but no files,
and deleted them, only the first one would be deleted.
Fixed. (Thanks to Janne Peräaho for the report).
- If you deleted a directory, but no files, the browser
wouldn't be refreshed aftwards. Fixed. (Thanks to Janne
Peräaho for the report).
- Added a debug menu to make it easier to find and
fix faults that i can't reproduce

HivelyTracker 1.6
HivelyTracker is a tracker based on the AHX-format. AHX was developed in the 90ies to write music tracks which are similar to the typical chip-sound of SID (sound-chip of C64).
Changes:
- Right since 1.0, the EDx command was broken! Fixed
- The range check on Cxx commands was broken. Fixed
- Now strips the upper nibble of 4xx instrument commands when loading a THX\0 file. AHX always did this since the introduction of filters (THX\1), but AFAIK WinAHX and its derivatives never did
