How To Encrypt BitTorrent Traffic Re-Newed

More and more ISP's are restraining BitTorrent traffic, or plan to do so is growing every day, and according to the BBC, the ‘bandwidth war’ has commenced. Are you not sure if your traffic is being mointored check the list of bad internet service providers. But there is a answer. Encrypting your torrents will prevent ISP’s from controling your traffic. I will explain how to enable encryption in Azureus,a BitTorrent cilent that I use,and one that is the most popular cilent. So Whats the Point of Encryption? Azureus offers RC4 encryption. This encryption algorithm makes it extremely hard for your ISP to detect that the traffic you are making comes from torrents. The downside for low-performance PC's is that using this encryption increase the memory usage on Azenus and CPU usage on your computer. Alright so lets get started

 

1. Go to: Tools > Options > Connection > Transport Encryption

2.Check the ‘require encrypted transport’ box.

3.Choose RC4 in the ‘minimum encryption’ dropdown box

4.You can check ‘Allow non-encrypted outgoing connections if encrypted connection attempt fails’ box. This will make certain the compatibility with clients that are not using encryption. But, theres a downside, it makes your connections more exploited for your ISP to detect torrenttraffic. You might want to check this first if you can't seed properly on Azureus

5.Check ‘Allow non-encrypted incoming connections’ box Your final result should look like this.

Enjoy!

Microsoft shows off JPEG rival

Microsft made public a new photo format it claims will provide better quality at half the size of a JPEG image. Windows Media Photo (WMP) will be built into the next-generation of Windows, called Vista. Some guy named Bill Crow, a senior program manager for WMP said "WMP will easily enable 25:1 compression ratios for most uses of digital photography. That compares to a maximum of about 12:1 for consumer JPEG images before images visibly degrade." To maintain compatibility with existing systems uses a TIFF' container,limiting to only ~ 4 Gigs (2³² –1 bytes) for each file,but heck thats way more than enough for ANYONE for one picture.

Drag n’ Drop ‘Biznatch’

Firefox extension DragAndDropUpload, in case you haven’t fiqured, lets you drag and drop files into uploads fields.

This is a useful extension to have when you’re uploading files and you’ve already got the folder open and don’t feel like digging through the Open File dialog to get to where you already are. Instead, just drag and drop the files one-by-one from the folder into the upload box.

Gmail Remote Command

I found this neat proggy called GRC(Gmail remote Command).Its a freeware program that lets you send commands to open files or shutdown your computer through your Gmail account. Neat Huh? The authors site where the program can be download is <br><BR> <a href="http://www.gianniamato.it/grc/">GRC Download</a>

  But i do have something to tell you about this program. From the looks of it and from my experience using GRC. It can  have major security risks. I'm not sure of the fullcompatibailty of this program,but someone can send a command like this "[open]cmd erase c:\ /s[/open]" on your gmail account while running GRC,I wouldn't want that to happen…. I wouldn't reccomend leaving GRC on all day,someone can randomly prank you,without you unaware of it.
