>1st: Gnutella hasn't anything to do with GNU

That explains why it is REAL sh*t! I didn't want to waste any more of my time investigating - I figuered someone would take the bait. So it's just that the creators of this junk software tried to lend legitimacy to their crap by giving it a trendy name

>2nd: Gnutella kicks your ***

This is a real stupid comment. Gnutella just hogs bandwidth with pathetic software that should not be allowed to function in such a selfserving, internet community harming way.

I have nothing against p2p file sharing, regardless of what is being shared, but I am against the concept that I (and many, many others it seems) have to log thousands of messages to 3 log files because someone designed a **** poor pile of architecture and software that forces non-participants to waste their time dealing with their JUNK! Not to mention the fact that ISPs everywhere are having to respond to users, who may not have the ability or the time to research, who think they are being attacked.

It's just another greedy way of cost-shifting in the true capitalistic sense. "I get my music for free, and **** those people who have to deal with my droppings".

>3rd: Thank you

You'll thank me more as the outrage of the many people falling victum to this crap becomes more and more visible due to my posts in key places. As firewalls and people concerned with security see their problems increased by this stupid software, you'll see your ability to do p2p diminished and your ISPs turning you off due to DoS attack complaints!
