Oh, and by the way, I have posted this same question on BearshareNet and the answers there have been more intelligent and adult than any you have ever given. It's a rather interesting discussion actually.
That discussion can be found at:
http://www.bearshare.net/htdocs/dcfo...mID26/246.html - "A question about the encrypted packets".
Of course I felt it necessary to post under a different nickname since Vinnie has threatened to remove any post I make at BearshareNet.
Hopefully he will allow the discussion there to flourish without censorship. I will of course be reporting any censorship of that discussion in this forum, you can be sure.
