A few days late but here it is. This version is mainly a maintenance update. By this I mean no flashy new futures were added. Instead this should resolve a bunch of issues and crashes that some people had with the Pre-ALPHA.
Changes Since v2.0.0 Pre-ALPHA:
- Fixed a crash that would occur on some PC's when a window is opened for the 2nd time.
- Fixed a crash that would occur on some PC's when clicking on the login button.
- Fixed a crash or freeze that would occur when the Start Leeching button was clicked.
- Fixed the program not logging the ChatBox content when the option is enabled.
- Fixed a typo. I'm sure there are more typos left in the GUI so let me know if you find one!
- Fixed problems with IPB 3 quote tags.
- Added error logging layer.
- Added asynchronous leeching (300%+ speed boost on 5Mbit+ connections and fast sites).
- Removed all F# code and ported it to the C# DLL. The F# runtime is no longer required to be installed.
- Improved duplicate topic posting prevention - It will now check the hash before actually reading the topic (speed improvement).
- Improved Keep-Alive requests.
- Increased HTTP connection limit (2 -> 12).
- Changed the default timeout value from 100.000 to 30.000 ms.
- Changed the default Regex settings (they are now enabled by default).
- Changed the default ChatBox nickname. The program will now set your Windows username as default value.
- Changed the window background color for the non-Aero interface.

Things you should know:
Async leeching is automatically enabled when the Pause value in your options is set to 0. By setting it to 1 or higher the program will switch to the old sync leeching method. A fast site (both leech and post) and a 5Mbit+ connection are highly recommended for async posting. On slow sites/connections async posting might actually drown your speed instead of improving it.
When you report a bug or problem make sure to include your Errors.log file. A screenshot alone is worthless. Also make sure you describe the problem as good as possible. Simply saying "it crashes for me" is useless.
