[Krell]

On occassion we do, but it is more of a niche case by case thing.

ok! i got the ideea !
now can you help me ?
i now browse the internet using a LAN that has a very strict policy. I can not use P2P programs because the server will ban me for at least one hour. The reason, they say, is the bandwidth.
Can anyone help me with a good FTP site or another "smart" solution for my problem ?

If the bandwidth is the problem, you may well have the same problems with FTP.

FTP's are usually faster and then you will use even more bandwith. Are you on a school network or anything?

And I don't use FTP's because you have to upload first. And since I have a 1024kb download speed and only 20kb upload speed max. (!!).... well uploading would take ages, and downloading from it would be a matter of minutes. I rather use a program like BT++ or Emule to get a download directly.

yep, in a nutshell...

[cpugeniusmv]

i use an ftp for transferring specific files to friends, but that's about it...

finding files on ftp is a huge hassle, the searchability of them is not as good as any of the p2p's...AND you have to deal with ratios and/or attaining a leech account, by whatever means the owner deems necessary.

Join some warez sites. They have public ftp's that don't require any uploading as well as members' ones that do.

Can u tell me a P2P program that connects trough a proxy from outside so that i don't make more than one connection through the local server because the filters that they instaled will ban me for one hour if i do so !

My Business school had the same trouble, so the dean called us for a solution.......

Mostly the files we were looking for were shared by our friends only so we put up a hub that works on our lan.....the software is like any other file sharing application but just connects to ip's inside the lan, u can configure the folders to be shared.........

This is like a case of only 500 students in a college, in a university there will be more users..........

Any ways transfering files over a network is like copying a folder on ur hard disc, that fast or that slow.........

I believe u can configure badblue to do so, check it out......hey if you just configure ur kazaa port to 80 can they still find out ur using p2p application ?

PS: Oh we prefer not to share the folders, and simple do a find files over a network, because , you know how windows is, and you know how Nimda is, E W T Y L Amytolyypdmsnaops .......goes on

I use some private FTP dump's... Thats some good sh*t
