Searching inside the Gnutella net?? (How does it work)

Hey.

My question is : Where can I find info on how the searching inside the gnutella network is currently functioning? What is most popular? Is it still flodding or is supernodes taking over? Is it random walks?

Thanx in advance.

Read the Gnutella 0.6 Protocol, you can find it here:

I think the Ultrapeer structure is now a essential part of the GNet, so it's not that 0.4 flooding style anymore. There's dynamic querying, LimeWire for instance supports it. You may want to check it out.
