first off: congrats and thanks for the hard work to the devs.

A question:
How does using rpc call "sendtoaddress" work with an encrypted wallet?

I advocate the Zeitgeist Movement & Venus Project.

Thanks for the update! I was a bit worried to see the "are you sure you want to encrypt" before the passphrase verification though.

Congratulations on the new release, especially the wallet encryption. Just one feature request (which has been voiced many times, I think): Could you please give some indication of the block chain download status, e.g. a progress indicator? Thanks.

thats already in the qt-gui, so you get it with v0.5 if you dont want to compile that one yourself.

I had some minor troubles after the upgrade, but things seem to be ok now. Just in case someone else runs into the same issue: At first, the 64-bit linux client failed to download any new blocks. The first thing I tried was to start with a new .bitcoin directory; this worked, but I didn't want to re-download the entire chain. Then I tried the new 32-bit client with the original .bitcoin directory, and to my surprise, this worked as well. After downloading a few blocks, I started the 64-bit client again, which continued to download the remaining blocks.

Congratulations on the new release, especially the wallet encryption. Just one feature request (which has been voiced many times, I think): Could you please give some indication of the block chain download status, e.g. a progress indicator? Thanks.

Sadly still not working on W2k Cry

Switch to Linux. Surely W2K will have enough unpatched security holes that any bitcoins you own will surely get stolen.

It's a server in my home network and already behind a Linux gateway. It's never been compromised and has been running fine needing no attention. I know W2k is old, but this one just works and I don't intend to replace it just because of this update while the old client still works. Especially since the fix should be pretty simple (I already provided details in another thread).

And don't get me started by implying "Linux is safe by default"; for the sake of a civilized discussion, I'll assume you were trolling.
