I suggest to redo Brian's code though (Guntellatrans). In unmodified form, it can't sustain high loads and it has a few important bugs.

hi people!

I know that the Gnutella component has some bugs, at the beginning the GPU was very unstable.

One reason was a RemoveNode procedure (I rewrote it) for nodes in the route list (used to avoid that packets can grow exponentially using circles in the network), the other reason was how search strings were added in the search window log.
Now GPU seems to me very stable (but I couldn't try it out for more than about 8 hours).

also the download mechanism was not present in the Gnutella component (now GPU implements one Downloadthread).

Responses to file searches is also not implemented in the Gnutella component.

I searched for your project in www.altavista.com,www.google.ch and also at sourceforge.net, but I didn't find your project.

could you please contact me? my email is tmengotti@hotmail.com
perhaps we could work together (if you plan to release your code as open source and if you are interested in)
(and sorry for my broken English :-)

sorry Cultiv8r,

I didn't read the posts above before posting my message.
if you want to join our project you are the most welcome because you have knowledge in Delphi and you also noticed that the Gnutellatrans has some bugs.

I saw another client built over the Gnutellatrans component (Gnutviewer) and the author did nothing for solving the stability problems of the component.

Best greetings
