    - 32-bit 7-Zip running under 64-bit Windows now can use up to 4 GB of RAM.

    Thank you, that nasty bug finally beaten.
    Some minor things:
    1 7z.dll internal name is 7za.dll
    2 Copying file (using FM or dragndrop) to password protected archive lose header encryption
    2 Updating protected archive with new password lead to old files become inaccessible easily

    2,3 - It's difficult to change it now by some reasons.
