 Enabled Crossfade & Voice to  be on at the same time, originally it disabled voice because it would announce every song so it would just play over the voice.

Version 4.01 - 12/20/2009 to 2/19/2010

- Bugfixes mostly, stabilizing things.

Version 4.00 - 10/17/2008 to 12/19/2009

There are major internal changes, including:
New User Presence system, provides persistent handles to contact users in a medium-independent way (ie. IRC, Jabber, Remote Client, etc.)
Improved and much easier to use command handling.
Local IP discovery improved (helps the DCC plugin).
AutoDJ has many internal improvements.
Localization! That's right, as has often been requested you can now translate IRCBot and it's plugins, not just the normal ircbot.text lines.
Online configuration backup (if enabled) will upload a copy of your IRCBot configuration files so you can retrieve them anytime later if you lose them or want an older copy, etc.
ViralSound.com support plugin!
If you place your IRCBot v3 ircbot.users file in your v4 folder, it will import your v3 users and then delete the file. (make sure you keep a backup copy of ircbot.users just in case!)
Improved Buffered Send system.
Usernames now have restrictions on characters, this was always intended but never implemented until now.
IRCBot v3 imported users will automatically have bad chars removed from their usernames.
The MP3 Encoder now has a quality setting, this greatly affects the amount of CPU power IRCBot uses so you can reduce it if you need/want to. See more here.
Other changes from v3:
The playback internals of AutoDJ have been completely rewritten for IRCBot v4, but the changes made certain things not work:
 AutoDJ no longer has multi-server feeding support. This feature was kind of a hack job in the first place, and only worked for AutoDJ and not live DJs.
 It just seems like a stream transcoder is all around the better solution for multiple server feeding.
 AutoDJ currently has no Simple Mode support. It will either be added back later or another plugin will be made called be made into a plugin called SimpleDJ that will be a port of
 Simple Mode from the old AutoDJ to IRCBot v4.
 The AutoDJ voice currently doesn't work. AutoDJ voice is now functional again.
 DoPromos is no longer a modulus but a counter, so set it to 1 to play promos after every song, 2 to play after every 2 songs, etc.
 EnableVoice has been given similar functionality, set to 1 to play voice announcement for every song, 2 to do it after every 2 songs, etc.
 For both of the above you can also use a line like 2:5 to use a random number between 2 and 5 for example. The lower # must come first or bad results may happen.
If you see any bugs in IRCBot v4 or any of it's plugins (and I'm sure there will be some), please report them in our bug tracker here: http://bugzilla.shoutirc.com.
