Well, how about a section on the best firewall tweaks for our favourite P2P apps? Expecially for common stuff like XP firewall and ZoneAlarm....
This would be cool as most firewalls will allow one to connect to others, but may stop incoming connections from peers and therefore create pseudo-leeches around the network, making things generally suck all round...
Just a thought.

Don't forget routers, they tend have tricky firewall to get around too. :gj

This may sound dumb, but how about an "basic" explanation on the differences between some of the decentralized networks? Maybe they're all the same and this is a lame question, but if there are any differences in the de-centralization of, say, Blubster vs. Gnutella. Or, Gnutella vs. WinMix 3.0.
Hmmmm....

what differences do you mean exactly? the basic design of each network in how the users all connect to it ?

I think Ryoko has a point. It may be a nice thing to do to write a guide to the diferent networks. Who knows, it could encourage buddying programmers to try their hand at a client... And isn't this what tis site's all about?

An important thing to remember on a router is to set up your DMZ host... or in English the computer that is actually visible to the Internet. That helps connecting to apps like Direct Connect.

I'm really busy now. When I started I had nothing to do, but now I'm always busy. I'll try though.

For people that don't know you are zeropain all you are doing is making yourself look like a retard. You are not really spamming or bothering anybody. They just laugh when they read your posts because you look real stupid.

guides for the diff p2p progs -- how to get around firewalls (not XP or routers), but hardware firewalls that are beyind our ability to control (open ports and all that)
