Yes


I don't know all the tech. stuff, but files hashes group the same files together so your program knows that they are all the same. So even though the name might be a little different your gnutella program still thinks they are the same file and can download from either one. And even better is when you have swamming and can download from all the copies of the same file at the same time.

XoloX developement has been discontinued, so you are not going to be getting any of the new features if you keep using it.

BearShare and LimeWire have the lastest features, and PEERanha, Swapper, etc. are working hard to get them too.

Just don't use the clients in the "Discontinued Gnutella Client Forums" part of this forum if you want the lastest features.
