it's the superleech client ,
giving nothing, not even a name or ip.

i hope AYB manages it, to write a software, which cancels all from the my upload windows, who show no username!

Whenever there was a discussion on the old MusicCity boards about the "anonymous" users speculation would range from "It's people using Netstat and then browsing your shares" to "It's I-mesh" or even "The original MusicCity Fileshare program". After reading about this "KaZearch" on several Forums and News Sites over the past week I now realize what the real answer was!

To quote Indy "it's the superleech client".

I don't know, but but it seems like more effort to search with this program rather then one of the FastTrack clients... Although you don't have to deal with the excessive memory overhead these clients are (in)famous for... And until recently you couldn't use the one feature they are known for ie multi-source downloads, although the developer says he is including that in his newest version...

That's not the only client like that either.

I read about this somewhere before. Could really care less as I don't like fasttrack much but....... Being the nature of the program there is several issues one might want to consider. Scanning for open ports can and may get you in a bind with your ISP as it looks like "hacking" On the same lines dialup connections will most likely find this of very little use at all because of the bandwidth needed to scan the net.

Interesting to see if Sharman/Fastrack will patch this hole
