Version 4.00 doesn't really mark any significant changes but the previous version which was 3.99 could only be logically followed by incrementing the major number.
Version 4.40 brought in the first native 64 bit release which improved the performance of loading large images (more than 25 megapixels).

Additional Comments
Version 4.25 needs mfc dlls (use winetricks) for the installer. Without these dlls installation is not possible. Version 4.25 also crashes on startup. To solve this problem delete the i_view32.ini which is located in the IrfanView installation directory. IrfanView recreates a "simpler" one which causes no crashes.

- correct the selection by dragging the left selection border to another position
--> the double-ended arrow cursor ofen is not correctly aligned with the selection border
I guess this happens, when the image is zoomed.
