changing the bottom box would be confusing when the mouse isn't hovering
the focused control.

i've added tooltips instead in rev 2812.

watch out for possible glitches as dispatching of help messages has been
globally simplified...

Title:
  Context sensitive help should react on mouseover

Status in DC++:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  The Settings dialog has an (ugly) richtextbox on its bottom which acts like a context sensitive help. Unfortunately you cannot see the help for the desired option until you click on it.
  For example, you see "Click on this button to save" only when you pressed OK which has no point at all :) But the same stands for similar options with checkboxes. You will only see the help for them when you tick/untick them.

  It would be good if the help text would change on mouseover, or, even
  better: it should change when you keep the mouse over an item for a
  specified time (a few seconds) OR when you click on it.
