Hi folks,
Indeed this is a long shot, but if you don't try, you don't get. Maybe the more senior members might be able to help me.

About 4 months ago I was browsing the Gnutella forums, it was either this forum or the General Gnutella Development Discussion Forum. I came across a thread that "MAOK" had participated in. MAOK had left a post in which he supplied a link to a download.

The download was of an illustration about how the Ping-Pong system works. It included pictures of about 6 computers and how they communicate with each other. The illustration had visual and audio effects.

I did have this Download, but the golden rule was not applied - Back up - Back up - Back up. I would really love to obtain it again as it explains very easily how Ping-Pong works. So that I can show it to my mates as I find it hard to explain to them as they do not use computers.

I have went to the members list and started to search for MAOK's Posts, but there are 821 of them.(Needle in a haystack).

Any help much appreciated. Thanx. :confused:

Sorry folks,
it is "MOAK" not "MAOK"

Hi Stief,
Once again you have come to the rescue. I followed your link and within a minute or so I found what I was looking for.

Keep up the good work mate:D

All the best Jack.

Thanks--I been puzzled by the search engine myself. Try searching for 'NAT' issues, or '97.7 bug'.

The thread was initialy started by someone called 'Natalie' asking a simple question and Moak kinda took over the thread and supplied all sorts of links.. I pointed people there many times :)

Hi Kath,
Thanx for your reply, I found the link. It's a pitty that "MOAK" is not around anymore.

All the best
Jack.:D

But I do know where to find him.. I see him every day on IRC :)

Trust KathW...

She knows where ALL the bones are buried around here !

Not to suggest that Moak has reached that stage of development... yet !
:p

Hi Kath & Ursula,
Could you tell me what IRC is? I'm new to all this on the net. Thanx.

All the best
Jack:cool:
