Broader Network
 

Limewire is really pretty good.Since we pay for the software we use.We need to have a broader file sharing network.Limewire is only connected to gnutella network right?Why not make it like shareaza?shareaza is free and has lots of connections to other networks and the best of all it's free.So limewire deserves a more wider network.Not to mention that lot's of shareaza users are "uploading" my files.:o

Multinetworking is only a poor man solution. Shareaza will NEVER be numero uno P2P simply because it depends from others to get stuff. LW is improving constantly the gnutella network so we don't need that stupid multinetworking idea. Just look at improvements of Gnutella between LW versions. That can't be said of G2 the principle network of the frankenstein RAZA app.

Do you favor innovations or many poor implementations? Let me guess... :p

Well i'm not saying that LW sucks and Shareazaa rules.But I can't bare the fact that most of the people uploading my file comes from shareaza.
So it's not the benefit of a doubt.By making LW a multinetwork file sharing program we could broaden our file sharing benefits.

For example i'm also using bittorrent.It's concepts may not be like Lw and a like but at list it's an open source type.I mean you could just barge in any torrent sites and download what's available.
I also use bearshare(which i payed for it) to find e-books since i can't find what i'm looking for in LW (and the same with bittorrent).
So what i'm saying is.instead of using any other "lame" p2p programs.Why not use LimeWire-"all in one".That way we could save time,money,memory, and risks(for security reasons).
You know what I mean?:)

I know what you mean, but is not the solution, I for instance compiled my own version of LW so those RAZA don't get my bandwidth while they don't give me **** :p (but this solution is only for advanced users). We have to be smarter than those multi frankenstein apps, ie not playing their idiotic game.

Ciao

Hmm....I guess your right.Thanks anyways.hehe:p

et voilà, you mind if i get a copy of that patch?

i have a vastly large library, and i dont like how shareaza users leech off me..

do you also got one for morpheus?

When you download the three modules of CVS, go in core/com/limegroup/gnutella/uploader and open httpuploader.java

Do a search for Morph in the text editor, the second time morph is mentionned you should see

if( (str.indexOf("Mozilla") != -1) ||
(str.indexOf("Morpheus") != -1) ||
(str.indexOf("DA") != -1) ||
(str.indexOf("Download") != -1) ||
(str.indexOf("FlashGet") != -1) ||
(str.indexOf("GetRight") != -1) ||
(str.indexOf("Go!Zilla") != -1) ||

just add between those banned apps, morp is morpheus:

(str.indexOf("Shareaza") != -1) ||
(str.indexOf("Etomi") != -1) ||
(str.indexOf("eTomi") != -1) ||
(str.indexOf("morp") != -1) ||
(str.indexOf("MLDonkey") != -1) ||
(str.indexOf("iMesh") != -1) ||
(str.indexOf("Trusty") != -1) ||
(str.indexOf("Xolox") != -1) ||
(str.indexOf("Kiwi") != -1) ||
(str.indexOf("giFT") != -1) ||
(str.indexOf("360Share") != -1) ||

Compile LW. voilà, just banned many stupid clients from your upload list

I can also tell you how to block those clients connecting to you if your are an UP, tell me if you are interested.

absolutely! btw, does grokster connect to gnutella, i have never seen that client anywhere, but i wouldnt want it around...

Grokster is not connecting to Gnutella ;)

go in go in core/com/limegroup/gnutella/ and open ConnectionManager.java

search for "if(userAgent" You'll have to copy two times the list of hosts banned because you have to block them from connecting as UPs to you (private static boolean allowUltrapeer2UltrapeerConnection) or as a leaf (private static boolean allowUltrapeer2LeafConnection).

After the lines:
if(userAgent == null)
return false

paste:

if(userAgent.startsWith("morph")) return false;
if(userAgent.startsWith("Kiwi")) return false;
if(userAgent.startsWith("Trusty")) return false;
if(userAgent.startsWith("MLDonkey")) return false;
if(userAgent.startsWith("Xolox")) return false;
if(userAgent.startsWith("Kiwi")) return false;
if(userAgent.startsWith("giFT")) return false;
if(userAgent.startsWith("360Share")) return false;
if(userAgent.startsWith("eTomi")) return false;
if(userAgent.startsWith("Etomi")) return false;
if(userAgent.startsWith("Shareaza")) return false;
if(userAgent.startsWith("iMesh")) return false;

Compile core and voilà!
