• The MSVC runtime DLL is now linked in statically. This should prevent issues related to missing DLLs on some systems.

• Fix a regression introduced in 1.4 where WinIPBroadcast would not only relay packets from the local machine, but broadcast packets arriving on network interfaces as well.

• Don't relay packets with a TTL of 1 or less.
• Relayed packets will now be sent with a TTL of 1.
• Use TTL instead of source address for the purposes of preventing recursive relaying. This removes a limitation of WinIPBroadcast where it would not relay packets that are sent with a source address different from the global broadcast default route.

• Harden service security by removing most of its privileges. This prevents a potential attacker from gaining highly privileged access to the system by compromising WinIPBroadcast.

• Forgot to close a socket when sending broadcasts, which could cause serious problems on the system (e.g. total freezes) when sending large numbers of broadcast packets.

• Handle WSAEHOSTUNREACH correctly in broadcastRouteAddress(). Allows WinIPBroadcast to survive waking from sleep.
