I've looked at some of the handshakes. Apparently, they always hang up after the first handshake response which seems to indicate they don't like some of the parameters. Maybe they just hang up due to the missing "X-Auth-Challenge" in the response. These handshakes look more or less like normal Gnutella handshakes. According to my information though Foxy isn't based on Gnutella but G2, the handshake doesn't indicate this. I've seen a search result from Foxy exactly once so far. So Foxy doesn't really seem to be using Gnutella. The easiest option would be banning them by their identification. The last thing Gnutella needs is another abusive parasite. Their IP addresses might end up in the cache due the Listen-IP header in the first handshake request. This should certainly be avoided. -- Christian ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Crystal Reports - New Free Runtime and 30 Day Trial Check out the new simplified licensing option that enables unlimited royalty-free distribution of the report engine for externally facing server and web deployment. http://p.sf.net/sfu/businessobjects _______________________________________________ gtk-gnutella-devel mailing list gtk-gnutella-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/gtk-gnutella-devel
