DESKmule 1.2 - eMule webserver stats viewer

The Widget
------------

The idea behind this widget came frome my network: I have a "server" pc directly connected to internet,
always on, which runs emule and other software (firewall, ics, ecc.). The other 2 pc's access the net
through this server. I have two ways to see my emule status: VNC and webserver access with the
browser. Both requires running programs and writing stuff. With this widget you don't need to do this way.

Setting Up
----------
The widget is useful to those who have emule running on another computer. It requires emule webserver to be
active. To enable it, go to the preferences window of emule, "WebServer" category and fill the fields.
And check "Active" checkbox too. Remember, if present, to uncheck "GZip Compression" checkbox.

Then launch DESKmule, open the preferences and put the server address, followed by the port (default is 4711).
Example is 192.168.0.1:4711 (my configuration). Then insert the password and save preferences.
You can choose the stats update interval, in seconds. I think that for a home network, an update every minute
can be performed, whereas for a remote server choose at least 3-4 minutes.

Version History
---------------

1.2 Added "Paste ed2k link" to context menu, which automatically adds an e2dk link (in the clipboard)
    to emule downloads. Some bugs fixed.
1.0 First release.
