Hello,

I was wondering if there was some sort of way I could type like a list of 100 titles and artists in some particular format and load that into limewire and it could automatically do all those searches for me all at once. I remember awhile back in kazza you could download someones playlist (kpl file i believe) but you couldn't play any of the files because none of them were stored locally, however if you would double click the file on the playlist it would automatically try to download it because it had the file size title filename etc already in it. I have a feeling i'm going to get flamed, lol :)

Oh i figured while i was at it i would ask my other question i've always wondered too......

If I can see the IP address of those people downloading from me...then wouldn't be as simple for the record label companies as leaving a file up for people to download.......look at who is downloading from them (their ip addresses) then browse that persons files........bam now we're ready for a lawsuit.

I dunno but that seems easy to me??

Then again I was reading in some news article that the first person finally got prosecuted for downloading/sharing movies via BT and they said that BT makes it so hard to track someone......but if you click preferences you see everyones IP that you are downloading and uploading from....you even see some extra IP addresses of people with that same file even if you are not uploading or downloading to them.

Can someone elaborate a bit for me??

HAHA i love this forum. One more thing I've been wondering.......is there anyway I can check an entire folder of MP3 files for being corupt the way limewire checks??

wow thanks everyone for your responses :)

np ... anytime ... come around again ... just ask & we're happy to watch. lol :D

Most people have dynamic ip's for a start which change every 1-3 days which are then adopted by others. Personally I believe the aspect of browsing to help continue downlds or find extra material or to find a way to later connect via direct connect is an important tool to find rarer files. For those who are not after rarer files then this is not such an issue. And most of those have ip's that start with 192 which are 'arguably' impossible to trace & certainly impossible to direct connect to. These are people who are quick take & leave or are just ignorant as to how to set their system up for the type of sharing they'd envisage.

Not a clean & cut method of detecting mp3's but works for those who know "something" about how to detect differences in file size & bit-rate compared to what's expected. T3 Spammers; mp3 Bit-Rates Versus File Sizes

I'm neither a BT or Kazaa user so I can't comment there-upon. :)
If anybody wanted to trace you they could no matter what net program you used. Your footprints are left everywhere you travel on the net! Just ask ukbobboy01

well when you say 192 IPs that makes sense to me because those are router IP addresses, but when you connect to a website or to someone on limewire your ip doesn't show up at 192, your ip shows up as the IP assigned to your connection. 192's are just there for internal networking, when you connect to an outside network (ie a website) they see your connections IP. Go to www.whatismyip.com to see your "real" ip address. You'll notice its quite different from the one windows displays when you go to your network connections.

But even if your IP is constantly changing....doesn't your ISP record alll those?

AFAIK they can & probably do. Web sites can do it. But they (isp's) are under a secrecy agreement. Only under exceptional circumstances would the average isp give those up to other authorities. But then, there's some who have strict policies & probably wouldn't hesitate. I remember UKBobboy 01 left a great link which showed exactly how vulnerable we all are as soon as we start browsing & hopping from site to site. View UK's earlier posts & you might find it. Great link!!! I don't know why I didn't bookmark it. :confused:

192.x IPs and 10.x IPs are lan IPs as shaba said.

Quote from emule forums:
Dynamic IPs for ISPs are easier to manage as they can reset their database without remembering IPs. This also help them control traffic as people usually don't install web services (bandwidth consuming) on machines with dynamic IPs.

ISPs DO keep track of the last few IPs you had with the corresponding time. They usually change your IP a couple of times a week even if you are always connected (ie via a router).

Did a search for ukbobby user name and vulnerable and came up with like 10 threads, went through them and didn't see any relevant links that he posted. Do you remember any part of the thread at all? A single unique word that you could remember could help me find it very quickly.

Thanks
