CraigSpy just got even better — our search engine enhancements have been upgraded significantly, enabling users with the Show Matching Posts ONLY option checked to obtain very accurate search results.

Additionally, we have added a Stop button, and repaired a few bugs in other features!

• Search enhancements – when a user has Show Matching Posts ONLY checked, a more in-depth search is performed in both posting titles and descriptions.  New search process returns much more accurate results to the user.  Additional “smarter” search options have also been added (see the key word help option.)
• Stop Button added – after a user presses “spy” the current process can now be stopped.
• Fixed an issue with the status bar that caused improper status reports.
• Fixed a small issue that caused CraigSpy to crash on some 64-bit PCs.
• Prepared UI for full-screen mode (feature to be released in an upcoming version.)

Due to popular demand, we’ve added support for the Casual Encounters category in the Personals section.  Rants & Raves category was also added.Additionally, we’ve repaired a recent issue with the photo preview feature that prevented photos from appearing (this was caused by programming updates at CraigsList.org.)

• Fixed verification tools; users could not install on two systems as promised.  New system allows 2 unique system installs per license key.  (Max of 2 computers.)
• Adjusted flagging tools.  New flagging system will not re-flag items when “Flag New” is on.  It will also NOT consider previous matches as “found”; users must now do this manually. Users can flag and un-flag matching items by clicking item flags or the “Clear All” button.
• Added “Search XX Posts Deep” option.  Previously, CraigSpy would scan only the latest 100 posts.  Now, users can scan up to 2000 posts deep.
• Added timer intervals to primary scrollbar.  Users can now “click and hold” scrollbar buttons.
• Fixed a mousewheel issue with the item list — mousewheel scrolling of other list boxes caused interference with the main list.
• Added new search options.  + and - symbols can be used as search parameters (ie: “+truck, -ford” searches for posts with the key word “trucks” and without the key word “ford”.) 
• The + option isn’t required; users would get the same results with “truck, -ford”. 
• Multiple terms/keys MUST be separated by commas.
• Added help icons with tooltips.
• Added all remaining countries and cities (from Argentina to Vietnam!)

Now Windows Vista users can enjoy using CraigSpy!

With the latest v1.11 update, CraigSpy users can enjoy the benefits of CraigsList searching in Microsoft’s Vista Operating System.  We are confident the software is stable and working in the Vista environment as it does in XP/2000 tests.

Next: Will we release a Macintosh compatable product?

CraigSpy v1.11 is now available, bringing a stack of new features to CS users.  Features include multiple location and category searching, automation processes, display features and a ton of compatability fixes.  Windows Vista users can now enjoy CraigSpy, and FireFox/IE users don’t have to worry about issues with browser differences (when viewing postings.)
 
 
Overall, CraigSpy has been given a heavy dose of stability and useability, giving users a new arsenal of search options for regular CraigsList users.
