| Re: no honor among theives Unfortunately, this is yet another example of patenting "prior art".
It will be quite easy to overturn the patent, considering people have been using MD5 and other hashing algorithms for years. | |

| Re: no honor among theives said by AMDUSER  :It will be quite easy to overturn the patent, considering people have been using MD5 and other hashing algorithms for years. Years before Sharman Networks ever dreamed up Kazaa MD2, MD4, MD5 hashing algorithms were developed by a company called Rivest back from 1989 to 1991. »www.rsasecurity.com/rsalabs/node.asp?id=2253
They steal the idea, change 6 lines of code and then try and patent all encryption ideas for the past 50 years. Just more of the practice of software development by lawyer instead of by programmers.

Greenville, SC | no honor among theives the Sad thing is that KaZaA owns or runs the FastTrack P2P stack or protocol.
Sharman needs to get shut down by its own spy bloated wares. | |

| so these companies change a single a line of code and they are home free, because a patent convers the device and not its use. this would be like UTC-Carrier trying to patent air conditioning by refrigeration.

Elmhurst, NY | Apparently, this was bound to happen. why can't they label all P2P applications as "cannot be patented". Now, I'm all for that (unless I start writing P2P code).

I'v been programming in c# for the last 2 years... hashtables are not a new concept. | |

| Flame them, Vinnie! I think Vinnie Falco, the creator of Bearshare
ought to flame Sharman, and do it big-time. Maybe
even do it on a website like Zeropaid, telling
everyone what a bunch of idiots Sharman is for trying
to patent file hashing, something that existed long
before they did.
I think it ought to be along the lines of the response
letters that piratebay.org sent the MPAA, and just as
nasty, telling their lawyers where they can stick
certain body parts and so on...

| Re: Flame them, Vinnie! Except that vinnie falco and all the other p2p profiteers would probably do the same if they had a chance
how someone can make a program with almost no purpose other than breaking copyrights can cry infringement is beyond insane
p2p for money=evil. period. | |
