Default XoloX does not work with supernodes

Hi!

Unlike Kazaa (and others) XoloX does not work with supernodes. So there are no computers who act like central XoloX-servers.

However when you use XoloX people can also download files from you, so that's why you see transfers in the uploads-screen (visible in the transfers section). Because XoloX is based on the Gnutella protocol, there is also a lot of overhead information (e.g. search queries) that everybody has to put through. This is an average load of 3 kb/s which is why Gnutella-based clients are less suitable for modem users and this also explains why your computer seems to act like a supernode: everybody performs server and client tasks.

Greetz,
David
