They could also go the other way and bundle Xunlei with the Google Toolbar or Google Desktop. The toolbar is probably not possible since it's just a browser extension, but Google Desktop would work.

I can't find a reason why Google would be interested in that. _______________________________________________ p2p-hackers mailing list p2p-hackers@lists.zooko.com http://lists.zooko.com/mailman/listinfo/p2p-hackers _______________________________________________ p2p-hackers mailing list p2p-hackers@lists.zooko.com http://lists.zooko.com/mailman/listinfo/p2p-hackers
