If you looked at your share under the software category, you would find Morpheus13.exe etc, so If you take a copy of cleanKazaa172 and rename it to kmd172_en.exe that makes it filename wise the same as a genuine copy, would this fool the other lesser nodes to upgrade with a clean copy, or would it get screwed up by the # of the file?

Just a thought... Well done to our Dutch software man by the way, long may your sites be free from hi-jacking..

Snark I'm not an expert on this but I would strongly suspect that hashing would prevent this from working.

I seem to remember trying a similiar trick trying to rename and older version to the updated version's number and it did not work for me.
