Try Phex 0.6.4 it contains a port filter for newly catched hosts. Or wait till the official release early next week.

I havent been able to completely verify it yet because all my hosts from my connect list has apparently gone stale
Who can point out a listsource to me other than gnutella.co.uk (which has one that contains only the 3 standart ports)

I couldnt find anything on the phex site that you mentioned NL guy

Thanks Gregor and all !

I was up and running already befor it again must have been some incoming requests ...
And I incorported it (the list) ...
and it made me think that in a time where autoconnect hosts are not a given anymore how to really (automatically) maintain an efficient autoconnect list ?

It probably will require the same object oriented X tries a (day)night X Nights to fail that I am missing from the found items and is unefficiently dropping them too quick before retrying a few more times ...
I know it looks pretty curios to see incoming packets asking for a file or a connection in general next day when you aren't even trading anymore ... But isn't that really little traffic in comparison with the repeated researches Phex is now producing ???
I remember times when my File source options were always filled ... Wouldn't it be nice to get back to that ?

Hi Eagle3Eyes,

I often thought about holding host a little longer. But this could really cause problems for not connected users. Please read this article about it.

The research effect only connected user. This would even effect unconnected users and maybe even users that never used Gnutella before (some ISP dynamicly assign IP's).
Even if you wait for 60 min between retries it could cause trouble for rare but popular popular files.
