EMule - Basic concepts.
All files are given a hash value that depends on the file's contents, but not its filename. This allows each user to find all sources to a particular file no matter what file name each user has given the file.
Files are broken into "chunks" of 9.28 MB each (the last chunk may be smaller if the file size is not exactly divisible by the chunk size). A file's hash value is computed by first computing the MD4 checksum of each chunk, and then computing the MD4 checksum of the string of thos ...

What happens to Helo, who chose to stay behind on Caprica in the miniseries. Helo was originally intended to have died there, but the writers "resurrected" Helo after repeated fan queries regarding his fate. Producers also were impressed by the performance of the actor, Tahmoh Penikett.

| | | | eDonkey: Encyclopedia II - Windows Vista - Overview Windows Vista was originally expected to ship sometime late in 2003 as a minor step between Windows XP and Windows "Vienna". Gradually, Vista assimilated many important new features and technologies of "Vienna", and so the date of release was pushed back to first quarter of 2006. In August 2004, Microsoft announced that it was making changes to what was then only known as "Longhorn". Microsoft basically started development afresh, building on the Windows Server 2003 codebase. This decision was reached in the wake of Windows XP Service Pack 2 ...

| | | | eDonkey: Encyclopedia II - Warez - Motivations and arguments Pirates generally exploit the international nature of the copyright issue to avoid law enforcement in specific countries. In Russia, the copying of software was once explicitly permitted by law when such software was not in the Russian language. This is no longer the case, but prosecutions for copyright infringement are still very rare.
The production and/or distribution of warez is illegal in most countries. However, it is typically overlooked in poorer third world countries with weak or non-existent IP protection. Some first world c ...

| | | | eDonkey: Encyclopedia II - Peer-to-peer - Legal controversy Under US law, "the Betamax decision" case holds that copying "technologies" are not inherently illegal, if substantial non-infringing use can be made of them. This decision, predating the widespread use of the Internet applies to most data networks, including peer-to-peer networks, since distribution of correctly licensed files can be performed. These non-infringing uses include sending open source software, public domain files and out of copyright works. Other jurisdictions te ...

This project referred to as LionShare is based on a second generation network, more specifically the Gnutella model. The main purpose of this network is to share academic material between users at many different academic institutions. The LionShare network ...

EMule - Introduction.
The credit system is used to reward users contributing to the network, i.e. uploading to other clients.
The strict queue system in eMule is based on the waiting time a user has spent in the queue. The credit system provides a major modifier to this waiting time by taking the upload and download between the two clients into consideration. The more a user uploads to a client the fas ...

Warez - Product piracy.
Before there were computers and software, piracy existed; At the time, piracy was usually, though not always, profit-oriented. During the 1980s, one of the most famous products targeted were Lacoste shirts. This type of product counterfeiting was and still is done by organized crime groups often based in countries like China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Thailand, and Russia. These groups illegally produce millions of counterfeit copies of clothing, electronics, microchips, music CDs, VHS &a ...

| | | | eDonkey: Encyclopedia II - Warez - Distribution of warez Organized groups operate with strict ruleset of what can be released and in which format each release should be. The groups may also have private sites for internal purposes, such as archiving their own releases and transferring the unmodified material between their members. Communication within a group is usually handled through encrypted channels (with Blowfish, AES, or some other cipher & key method), using SSL secured private Internet Relay Chat (IRC) servers. Communication within a group is important in coordinating their releases. ...

The laws and their application to warez activities may vary greatly from country to country. Generally, however, there are four elements of criminal copyright infringement: the existence of a valid copyright, that copyright was infringed, the infringement was willful and the infringement was either for commercial gain or substanti ...

| | | | eDonkey: Encyclopedia II - Windows Vista - Editions It is rumored that Windows Vista will ship in nine editions; all of which except for Starter Edition will be in 32-bit and 64-bit versions. It is possible that all editions of Windows Vista will be printed on a single DVD to cut production costs. With such a system, Microsoft would either have separate retail packages, or a single retail package with multiple UPC's that would allow a user to purchase any version with one box, then call in to Microsoft and get a product code.
Microsoft has not made any official statement on product versions or price points, but some of the product names have appeared in ...

Over time 7 more developers joined the effort. The source was first released at version 0.02 and it was published on SourceForge on July 6, 2002. It was first released as a binary on August 4, 2002 at version 0.05a. The "Credit System" was implemented for the first time on September 14, 2002 in version 0.19a. The eMule project website started up on December 8, 2003. Since its inception, eMule has been down ...

| | | | eDonkey: Encyclopedia II - Peer-to-peer - Computer science perspective Technically, a completely pure peer-to-peer application must implement only peering protocols that do not recognize the concepts of "server" and "client". Such pure peer applications and networks are rare. Most networks and applications described as peer-to-peer actually contain or rely on some non-peer elements, such as DNS. Also, real world applications often use multiple protocols and act as client, server, and peer simultaneously, or over time. Completely decentralized networks of peers have been in use for m ...
