If anybodys intrested in trying it or helping its quite large for a hosts file, pulled form various sorces then compiled.
APK was working on it, but he desided to act like a child and run off when people wouldnt agree with his opinions on 64bit windows(if you dont know who apk/alec staar is be thankfull.....)

This is the same "troll wannabe" who claims that it's a great way to prevent getting viruses because since he installed it on his (*cough*) girlfriend's (*cough*) computer, she only gets a couple of viruses a month. Anyone who points out that "only" a couple of viruses a month is a FAIL, this guy starts anonymously posting crud after he gets back from the noon shift at the fast-food restaurant he works at part-time. He's very easy to troll.

Hell for all we know he could be dead or hospitalised.

Unlikely. For example, Lance Davis recently anonymised the DNS records for centos.org.

He is the admin (possibly owner) of definitesoftware.com, which owns UK ISP uklinux.net. People have been complaining that uklinux has been going tits up (unanswered emails, etc.) for several years now.

In a similar way, I use tor to route all http tracker requests.

Additionally, I use Transmission along with the Bluetack 'bad ip' blocklist. The blocklist covers various 'bad' netblocks such as record companies etc.

Everyone - please download and use eMule 0.47b, it now has protocol obfuscation:

Protocol Obfuscation is a feature which causes eMule to obfuscate or "hide" its protocol when communicating with other clients or servers. Without obfuscation, each eMule communication has a given structure which can be easily recognized and idenitfied as an eMule packet by any observer. If this feature is turned on, the whole eMule communication appears like random data on the first look and an automatic identification is no longer easily possible. This helps against situations were the eMule Protocol is unjustly discriminated or even completly blocked from a network by identifying its packets.
It is however important to note what Obfuscation is not intended to do: It will not increase your anonymity, it will not make you "invisible" in any way and it will also not protect you effective against eavesdroppers. Also if your network admin has a good legal reason to block eMule (for example a restircted company network), bypassing it may cause you other unwanted consequnces.
Obfuscation is currently availble for ED2k TCP and UDP, Server TCP and UDP and Kad TCP communication. Kad UDP packets are not yet obfuscatable.

By default, each eMule client (>= 0.47b) supports obfuscated connections to other clients, but doesn't actively requests them. If your ISP is not discriminating the ED2K Protocol you do not need to change anything and still help other users which may need obfuscation. Otherwise your have the following options which can be found in the

Also, please update the ipfilter data file here in eMule, options, security, tick off "filter servers too", and put this URL in the "Update from URL box"

And click load.

Dont forget to add these two servers to static and dont forget to connect to both KAD and the ED2K networks!

Old news for those that dare to share by Anonymous Coward · 2005-10-06 15:55 · Score: 2, Interesting · on HBO Attacking BitTorrent

As I recall it started to get obvious a couple of weeks ago. Rome's a great series I couldn't see without P2P groups. MediaSentry released a 95+% complete fake of the next week's episode onto the networks a week early in order to try and entrap sharers. I tested that release by repairing the 95% downloaded file and it was indeed just silent black video fill-in. Peerguardian lit up like a christmas tree during (and for days after) the download.

I'm curious as to how they can chase people for sharing a file devoid of any content or copyrighted materials like that.

Anyway, it's really not a problem for people that use blocklists and blocklist managing tools such as PeerGuardian.

Now here's a note for the HBO readers. I will pay for your content. I'll buy DVD's of this series and all the other quality TV shows I can only currently acquire 'illegally'. I will also be quite happy to see a little watermark advertisement in place of corporate branding in the corner of the screen. That's some premium ad space you're wasting there - you know this quality material will spread like a virus. And on top of that it's an additional incentive to buy the non-watermarked content when you make it available. Come on, please do get with the programme. Believe it or not we actually want companies that make quality entertainment to succeed in their efforts almost as much as the company executives themselves. The old distribution model is dead. Believe it or not, and scary though it may be, this is actually good news for all of us.
