How often (in hours) should a backup of the ini files be written into old_config.

Thu 26 May 2005 02:33:26 PM UTC, comment #2: Let me first clarify that by "it" I usually meant "the power outage" not "MLD". Upon rereading I realized, that my text begs for that misunderstanding. I do not think that MLD is at fault, that is why I filed as RFE because I hope there is a way to make MLD handle such situations out of its control more elegantly. One suggestion might be to not rely on the huge files.ini but on a dir where there is one file for each download. There might be other things that improve handling crash situations. I opened this RFE to discuss these things.
