OK, it hangs after dl-ing a few blocks, but when u restart it if happily resumes..
btw, use the conf file i added in the rar, it contains some working nodes..
Update: New rar file with elacoind.exe as well:

Okay,
I got some unexplainable errors: nBits below minimum work
I tried to see what exactly the value of nBits was at the time using
But alas, it won't give any output.. So... What I did, quick and dirty is:
I removed the error ;-)
Consequence is that your clients when used for mining might think it mined a valid block but actually didn't. The network will correct that I think. Maybe a more experienced dev can tell why this error occurs in the first place. I personally think it has something to do with the fact that the difficulty was changed from >>100000000 to >20 after mining the genesis block.
Let me know if it works there!

O, and I included a shortcut with an addnode I used on Linux this morning.. Since the IRC is crappy and the dns entries seem to be invalid, I'd suggest you add some more nodes. You can find them all around the Elacoin topics...

Hmm, a new release will follow.. Apparently someone though it funny to add invalid checkpoints to the checkpoints.cpp file:
https://github.com/elacoin/elacoin/commit/992bdc98758006bd597135df66c8c4b7b752109b
Which causes the client to error:

Did you get the new github upload ?
Its currently running without error only it doesnt sync blocks

Genesis block was mined with diff 0 so the client won't accept it with diff >>20 :p

Have fun!
Btw, this is the QT client. I'll try the elacoind.exe now..

Didn't Hazard successfully compile it the first time?
Yes, but I refuse to support this garbage this time around. The developer has proven himself to be extraordinarily inept, and I refuse to help him in any way, shape, or form.I encourage you to ditch elacoin and try out feathercoin2. Unlike elacoin, feathercoin2 has windows support!

ELC - premined scamcoin!
Feathercoin2 is the future. it has windows support! © Hazard

Btw you guys want qt or the elacoind.exe?
May 14, 2013, 12:14:02 PM
I'm on it.. Just got home from work.. I compiled it this morning, but some chang were pushed after that so I have to recompile it.. I except bbq coins and any other altcoin you would like to donate ;-)
Mind you though, i compile the source as is.. So no complaining about litecoin features.. Milkshake didn't spend much time on the qt part..
