Wasn't it 200?

I check again.
brb
confirmed. its <2000 results then you can still ask for more results
ok and you want a feature that emule automatically press the more button every minute or?
how we should handle it with an extra option in the preferences where you could insert a value how often emule should press the more button. Or should i insert an extra button in the search window? if you tick it once emule automaticly search for more results every minute until you press it again.
Thanks Butcho :biggrin:
WoW you think of everything :wink:. I think from a users point of view if you combine two of your suggestion it would be nice so we can control it where we need it most.
Sometimes I find that after a search has been made either through server or kad after the initial results even after a minute or so results still trickle in, so do yo think the 1min is enough interval time? Or does that even matter?
But if you include in your feature as suggested by you already the ability to choose the interval this should not be a problem.
:biggrin:
I read this in the eMule site:
Therefore eMule only finds max 200 individual hits for any given search term.
If you click the "More" button, you can search more, but not 2000:
If the connected server, could already give more than 200 results the More button becomes active and allows to query up to 1200 results from the local server.
I like this. Also, show a timer displaying how many seconds are left before the button is pressed again, and another button to stop doing it :biggrin:Quote:

anon, your reference is correct, and I would like to add that due to searches the way emule searches when it has many sources, the results can go over 200. for exmple:
from page 11 of this thread
The porn and zip search total results before going beyond 2000 each was around 1950 to 1980 in total search results, however with one more press of the "more" button it took it to its final tally yielding 300+ results adding to the current results total.
thanks :smile:
p.s.
ooh me likes this too.
It reminds of the kazaa days. Any of you guys around? :biggrin:
Doofe Frage: Welchen Vorteil hat dieser Mod gegenüber dem alten Flux Mod 0.47c? Bringt er zusätzliche Sicherheit in Bezug auf die Abmahnindustrie? Mehr als Stealthmode im Flux geht doch eigentlich nicht, oder? Was mich beim Flux wundert: Ich bin im Stealthmode und meine Warteschlange ist daher auch auf 0. Aber es wurden einige gebannt. Gebannt werden kann ein Client aber doch nur, wenn er überhaupt versucht, sich zu mir zu verbinden. Da der Flux aber doch keine Fileliste rausgibt, kann doch eigentlich kein anderer Client Interesse an mir zeigen, oder? Wie kommt es also zu den Bans?
google translator
[not every word was translated]
Is it possible that other emule/mods are detecting the leech features that Flux Mod 0.47c is using such as using same username as other users? Maybe some are detecting its a leech mod.
Does this ban only happen in stealth mode when using Flux? And why dont you ugrade to a current version. Its possible if the version number is too low it might be rejected due to security updates, 0.47c is like old and many new feature and security patches have come out since.
ha ha in that case Humphrey I can heartily recommend Butcho's emule SBI Leecher to you! Im sure you will find it very efficient and fast :biggrin:
The automatic translation above is total crap. What I was asking was: What is the advantage of this new mod over the old flux mod? The flux mod is running perfectly and I have no reason to complain. But I wanted to know if the new mod offers additional security when it comes to those guys who are logging your IP and then forcing you to pay a lot of money for sharing files.
I run the flux mod in Stealthmode and think that that's the highest possible security ANY mod can offer. Am I right? In Stealthmode I do not upload anything and in addition my filelist isn't sent to any server. Can the new mod do even more as far as security is concerned?
About the bans: It's not my client that is banned - others are banned BY my client. Since I am in Stealthmode and thus do not upload, the queue of others waiting to download from me is 0. But after a while I see something like : queue : 0 (4 banned). But to get banned by my client others have to try to connect to it in the the first place and then get rejected by my client because it doesn't upload. But why do they even try to connect to my client? My filelist isn't send to any server so NOBODY should have any interest to connect to me. That's why I'm a little worried if Stealthmode REALLY doesn't send my filelist to any server. In addition I'm not sure if REALLY the upload is 0. The statistics say so but nevertheless there is upload because of the overhead which is normal. But when I choose to display the overhead there are slight differences between the upload and the overhead - for example upload is 1,2 and the overhead is 1,1. This would mean that there is a "real" upload of 0,1. But the statistics say that the real upload is 0. Pretty inconsistent, unfortunately.
About those IP logging guys I mentioned above: Do you have the same problems in the UK? How do you behave? Do you think that a leecher mod is sufficient? I recently read about a German user who was logged by those guys though he was using a leecher mod. (at least he claimed to have used it but he didn't say what mod he was using).
Go to google translator and help it to fix the translation by rephrasing the sentences.
As i havnt used Flux mod b4 I cannot give a comparrision, however I can give a summary of Butcho's emule SBI Leecher mod. And please amend or correct if Im wrong:
no upload = you are not sharing files just dl
don't share incoming folder*
don't share your downloads*
don't share all file*
Spooky Mode uses Source Exchange in place of server or kad
Don't publish filelist in Kad
Don't publish filelist in Server
*varying lvls of sharing but the less you share the chances of your speeds going down increases.
All these help with fake server attacks. No upload will alleviate your chances of being prosecuted for the reason most companies want to catch big time uploaders no so much downloaders.
And using just Source Exchange will narrow down your exposure to companies, however exposure cannot be totally eliminated if you wanna dl.
If you use an IP blocker for example then visit The Pirate Bay, even without dl 1 single thing, just browsing, you will see in your logs that there are hoards of anti-piracy companies who try to check you out.
Let me just say the only way not to not get caught is ... dont dl anything illegal.
The best way to not get caught is to not dl anything illegal. Because there is absolutely no sure way. You always run a risk, its part of the game.
The second best way is to use encryption.
Even if your "whole" filelist isnt sent to others, your current file(s) that your dl is known to others. You want some undownloaded part from others, and since you have connected and asked for that file others know you should have some parts of that file, or even the current part.
Since Im sure you're not just dl 1 file at a time and dl many at a time, multiply that scenario by the numbers of clients your client is connecting to due to the file that are being dl by ur client.
Thats how (at least) other clients know to connect to you.
I really have no idea of Flux's mod so cant comment on its stealth bcos i havnt used it b4. However, if all upload is turned off that might mean that some1 is hacking u!!!! No jk lol. It might just mean that the official upload is 1.1kb, and the 0.1 difference is just due to Flux's method of retreiving sources.
Using flux's mod
Turn off stealth and try to make the settings into a default standard emule as much as possible. Just make another program directory of a new copy of Flux. Have in your dl only a legit list. download as normal and check out if u see any differences.
Turn on your stealth mode and any settings you have in your normal Flux mod. dl as you would normally and take note. Is there any difference the way stealth mode is functioning?
Thanks for this looong answer!
1) Can you explain how to use encryption with Emule?
2)"*varying lvls of sharing but the less you share the chances of your speeds going down increases."
That's why I like flux so far: Though in Stealthmode with no upload at all I can't complain about the speed.
3)Spooky Mode uses Source Exchange in place of server or kad
With my flux mod I only use KAD and no ed2K servers. I thought that with using KAD I ask several clients about a file, they ask several other clients and so on. What's the difference between this method and "Source Exchange". Why is source exchange even more secure? This would be a reason to switch to this new mod.
4) "It might just mean that the official upload is 1.1kb, and the 0.1 difference is just due to Flux's method of retreiving sources."
I thought that ANY "upload" that is no real upload but just data that is sent to ask for files etc. is called "Overhead". So the data necessary for flux's method to retrieve sources should also be included in the overhead, shouldn't it?
Seems to be a calculation problem though: I just saw that the flux mode says: Upload 0,8 and Overhead 0,9. Makes no sense at all.
What about the new mod? Does it really tell you that the upload without overhead is 0 all the time and you get a straight line in the statistics?
5) I thought that P2P was dead and more and more people are using the Usenet to dl stuff since it is thought to be secure. So I was surprised to find this website and even new emule mods.
I think the new RSA key is also a good security feature because every x minutes it change your emule identification making you as another new emule user.It is like you install emule for the first time on your PC protecting you from detection because you are connected and downloading for a long time even if you share nothing.
np. no ed2k protocol uses 100% secure connection fo. for that matter no broad p2p network can be 100% anonymous if you connect to a unknown user you are exposing yourself to some1.
emule encrypts the requests not the data
The best you can do is protect yourself from 3rd party observers. ed2k nor bt provides this complete encrytion. There are encrytion protocals out there for p2p but they have a small user base. and also very slow. due to massive overhead.
Does Flux have this option of varying lvls of sharing?
Souce Exchange is used to connect directly to other emule clients bypassing the server most of the time. Kad is another network used by emule and Vuze and some other p2p clients to connect to each other
How did it work out from the test I suggested b4?
What you're asking is, you bought one of those garden hoses with many holes to soak your garden. the documentation says at a pressure of 10kpa 2liters/min flows in order to nourish your flowers. But then you find that 2L/min is not enough so you increase the pressure by turning the knob.
The standard as in what is orininally there to calculate overhead is used to measure the standard procedures of what the standard emule uses. Now since we are using mod that adds extra features nd different ways to get more "pressure" (sources and its data) these extra ways are not included in the standard overhead measurements. Not that its impossible just that it hasnt be incorporated. As long as you can water your garden with extra pressure maybe its ok that a little extra 0.1kb/s is used.
You can kill a company but p2p is here to stay
Considering that you are using a very old 0.47c mod and many security patches have come and gone, even with all your stealthmode enhancements it just leaves much more room for others to manipulate the flaws to get into your computer and see what you have, thus possibly nullifying the steal effect.
Im sure Zeitgeist's Flux was an excellent mod when it came out, but I think maybe its time for a change.
And i repeat
cheers

Changing the key is good to trick other clients that you are a new user and clears the account that u have leeched 10gb from them without ul back. However your IP is still the same. A company is concerned with matching your client's filelist with your ip.
