If this file is corrupted, it is very likely that your patial downloads are also corrupted. It's not easy to reconstruct that file,asits structure is complex:...
FYI, I've prepared a short course on NAT traversal in P2P. Available in http://p2p-mentor.berlios.de/ Any comment is welcome. Bye. -- Prima il 30% poi...
Hello all I was wondering, does anyone know how often ultrapeers exchange their routing tables between one another? I found a proposal which says that ...
Since when is the gdf group a mailing list for limewire specific stuff? Can't these questions be asked at the limewire mailing lists, thank you very much. -...
I hardly find it surprising, being as LimeWire is a most well-known & open-source Gnutella implementation. One could consider it the reference implementation...
Hello, I am looking for the most recent protocol specification. Could anyone point me in the right direction? I would also like to know if the vendor...
Any standard standalone application written in Java contains a class that implements the method "static void main(String[] args)". This source file contains...
Looking in the specifications and also the Limewire source code, I noticed that each keyword is hashed 3 times. Once as itself, once after removing the last...
That is likely from other clients that are either using a different routing strategy or from spammers that respond to anything. There are two scenarios where...
One other thing occurred to me. LimeWire ultrapeers that your query is broadcast through will also apply their local query rules. So, it is certainly possible...
... http://www.the-gdf.org/wiki/index.php?title=The_Query_Routing_Protocol "All words are re-hashed with their trailing 1, 2, or 3 letters removed, provided...
Most probably, the file that was indexed had some meta-data strings attached, that used a different orthography, for example "gallager" (without the h), so...
... For languages which glue words this is beneficial. One could say the English language is really wasteful and damaging to neighboring peers when it comes to...
... I fail to see any sense in doing that. As I see it, either you hash each keyword only (perhaps removing a few trailing characters as Limewire does) or if...
... Are you certain? I've captured over 100 within a few hours of the same kind and there doesn't seem to be an end to it. ... I have no idea but if it's...
... It seems that the Quicktime format itself is documented fairly well but not the DRM part. I've read that it uses an "drms" atom to implement this. As far...
Looking into the Limewire code, I noticed another thing regarding the Query routing tables. Each Ultrapeer sends to its Ultrapeer neighbours the all the bloom...
Not last time we checked. Why don't you measure it. There is an advanced statistic that can report on an ultrapeer's drop rate based on last-hop query...
... The vast majority of the obvious spam I see is the following ZIP archive. What's interesting about this is that the filenames are "authentic" except for...
From: "Christian Biere" <christianbiere@...> ... Couldn't these files be detected by the Tiger-Tree data which contains enough partial checksums that...
... In case anyone cares, the correct checksums are as below. I had not cleared the last byte of the date fields and those were always 0x34. With all eight...
