I'm a little confused about this, why is it important that it knows its talking to a real Bearshare client but not important to know if you are talking to a real LimeWire client?

I think he means the spy control packets are encrypted with BS. Yes that's right, it's all BS anyway, so change a few BS bytes and everyone will be happy.

I assume you look for strings like "RSA", but since the BSing dude probably reads this forum they probably did a bit shift on the bytes so you can't read them.

Someone want to write something that does this for me?
