Re: What is cisco doing with Gnutella?

I can't comment on the vendor echoing issue (which I have experienced)
but until version 4.12.7 LimeWires had a serious bug which caused a
bunch of Cisco ips to propagate in everyone's hostcache.  If you
follow the cvs logs its easy to figure out what was happening.
Hopefully this will become less of an issue as people upgrade.
