NOTE: If you haven't noticed, I haven't been doing any real work on ViaHTTP for awhile, now that I have more free time, you should see more updates. I'm looking for new file protocols to add, email me if you have any ideas

- Fixed a bug that sometimes caused a NilObjectException when receiving a 404 File not found error
- You can now set the browser protocols/prefixes to whatever you want
- The transfer/download window's title says "Download" now, instead of "Copy" (I know it still says "Copying" inside the window, "Downloading" wouldn't fit)

- If you have any problems with FTP downloads, email me and I'll look into it

1.4

- Command-Clicking the Stop button now leaves the window open(Click Reload to Resume the download)

1.1
- Added URL Grabber(Command-G)
- Added Text Drop(You can drag URL's onto the Connect window)
- Added "httpr://" prefix, heres how you set it up:
YOU ONLY HAVE TO DO THIS ONCE
1) Open Netscape
2) Open ViaHTTP
3) Press Command-P
Now Netscape will open ViaHTTP whenever it encounters a URL starting with "httpr://"
So, if you want to download a file in ViaHTTP, simply replace "http://" with "httpr://", it works exactly like the "Telnet://" or "Hotline://" prefixes..........
