KaZaA Out of the Underworld: Revealed at Last

This is not possible for three reasons:

1) The algorithm in the FastTrack is hard coded in the .exe as machine code by virtue of a unknown c compiler and windoze linker. Not to mention the .exe is mangled by a post linker called PEX.

2) To change such algorithm you would have to patch the .exe machine code.

3) FastTrack supernodes work on the basis of known communication strategies with no way to force the inclusion of a outside strategy nor revert to a previously used strategy once it is expired. For instance to change the strategy they release a new version of the .exe like 1.3 -> 1.3.3 -> 1.5 not download a new set of one-time pads.

This is done to prevent malicious access to the network as a whole. This is all documented on-line if you look around.

Harby, do us a favor and either document your wild claims or stop making them as it is getting borrrrring.
