SmileCitrus Posted April 13, 2010 Report Share Posted April 13, 2010 I couldn't think of who I could ask about this, so I figured I'd ask here since it's sort of a uTorrent-related qustion. I assume this client must be Transmission by the version number, but Kawana Shiori, as far as I know, is the name of a Japanese idol...not a BitTorrent client.It's a Chinese peer and I was using uTorrent 1.8.5 at the time. I think this would be the first time I've ever seen someone edit the client ID just for novelty's sake. It's like a vanity license plate! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moogly Posted April 13, 2010 Report Share Posted April 13, 2010 Client spoofer surely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SmileCitrus Posted April 13, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 13, 2010 Heh, I've never understood why people try to spoof their client on public trackers though. The only point in it that I can see is messing with other peers' heads, which obviously this guy succeeded in doing!Thanks for the quick response. I was confused there since I didn't see the [FAKE] prefix or the BitSpirit prefix like usually appear in the peerlist for spoofed client IDs.
