Hello Juan,
the file is the following:
LimeWire/core/com/limegroup/gnutella/settings/ConnectionSettings.java

Two lines I changed:

157:
FACTORY.createBooleanSetting("ACCEPT_GNUTELLA_DEFL ATE", true);
I changed the true for a false
FACTORY.createBooleanSetting("ACCEPT_GNUTELLA_DEFL ATE", false);

167:
FACTORY.createBooleanSetting("ENCODE_GNUTELLA_DEFL ATE", true);
I changed the true for a false
FACTORY.createBooleanSetting("ENCODE_GNUTELLA_DEFL ATE", false);

I don't recall changing anything else.

I know also is not the best idea, but I am on the same situation, for prototype purposes.

Hope it helps!

Hello Mikejim,

Thanks for your help,

I modified the limewire files and took some captures with wireshark to "try" to understand how the gnutella protocol works.

Hi, the query and query hit is transmit using udp or tcp?

Where can I know which message using tcp or udp of limewire,I just find little udp message such as ping ,pong when bootstrap and handshake,why?

If the limewire using tls encryption,then we don't see the content using wireshark,isn't it?
