| Those files must be very slightly different. limewire has a method of identifying files-its call an "md5 sum" i think, or else it uses a similar method. this means it can compare one file toanother using its md5 sum and know whether they are the same or not. If md5 sums are not used in limewire, then a very similar method is used. I know this bcoz when i have added extra files ot my shared foler, when i run limewire it puts extra load on my computer as the number of files i am sharing slowly goes up- it is making an md5 sum or its limewire equivilant. so as i said, the files are slightly different, and limewire knows this, even if the movie is the same! jacobson! |
