    Gnutella has a problem

    After proprietary protocol extensions, freeloading support, spyware, clustering, disadvantaging and client badmouthing.... here is the new innovation of Vinnie's Bearshare: splitting the Gnutella network (called "Secure Channels").

    From Bearshare net: "You can choose to receive all query replies, downloads and uploads only from other BearShare clients". As usual Bearshare tries to sell this as a technical necesarry advantage. Good luck developers with your dear GDF fellow Vinnie.

    There is only one question left: How long does it take until Limewire implements this feature?

    Vinnie we are not talking about 0.4 connections here, we are talking about your new secure channel...

    for a decentralized network, you sure need alot of servers. LOL
    what's next? central servers AND host caches? Trying to build a new napster?
    keep the gnutella (xotella) network decentralized.

    Gnutella has a problem

    I put the IP I was DLing from into IE address window. I have a firewall "status window" that shows all connections in real time. but netstat would work too.

    PS: how did you find out that you are downloading from Bearshare? xolox 1.12 doesnt show IPs or vendor IDs, even netstat doesnt show you vendor IDs. *wondering*

    BearShare can be installed without additional bundled advertising products (called Adware).

    Simply uncheck the boxes at the time of installation - anyone who tells you otherwise is probably named Morgwen.
