We recently added what should be a significant improvement to the way 
Freenet decides what information to cache called "probabistic caching".  
This should significantly decrease the number of "data not found" errors, 
and also speed up requests in the network - however we will only start to 
see its effects when most of the network has upgraded to the most recent 
snapshot, so I am requesting that everyone upgrade to the latest Freenet 
snapshot.

This is easy in both Linux and Windows. In Windows, click "Update
Snapshot" in the Freenet section of your Start menu.  In Linux, stop
Freenet, run the update.sh script in your Freenet directory, then start
Freenet again.

Kind regards,

Ian.
