Bug description:
As of the current version (pre-0.76) does, DC++ saves the opened windows when quitting so you will find yourself on the same hubs as before (also pm windows, etc) when you restart the application.
This is a good feature, however, DC++ should save the windows state periodically (for example every 10 or 20 minutes) instead of only on quitting, since (for example) if a crash happens or the electricity goes out after a week uptime, you will get back the pm windows you had a week ago and that's not a lovely thing.
The same goes for the unsaved settings which can appear when you set the slot numbers by using /commands. DC++ doesn't save it until you open the Settings dialog and submit it, or you exit the client. On a crash, those settings are also lost. So, if there are unsaved settings, DC++ should also save them after a given time.
