silverfire Posted November 16, 2005 Report Share Posted November 16, 2005 Not a big problem, but it's still there. If anyone else sees any more unknown client ID's not mentioned yet, please post them here. I'd like to remind people to please thumbnail and link any images larger than 50KB. Since there are very few colors in screenshots of the GUI, PNG images compress extremely well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Intangir Posted November 16, 2005 Report Share Posted November 16, 2005 T0, isn't that BitTornado?I believe I've seen an Unknown TR before and it was flooding me with requests -- it went from around 3 or 4 to 699 in seconds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

silverfire Posted November 16, 2005 Author Report Share Posted November 16, 2005 Yeah, I'm pretty sure those are BitTornado clients, but I'm simply mentioning that they weren't being properly recognized :X Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chaosblade Posted November 17, 2005 Report Share Posted November 17, 2005 I see alot of those garbage IDs.. either encrypted peerid's or just hacked clients, i guess.ABC and BitTornado are fixed for me, i dont get those messed up anymore. (build 335)BitComet/0101 is actually BitLord v1.01 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
splintax Posted November 18, 2005 Report Share Posted November 18, 2005 May become a danger zone for dialup usersUmm, someone care to explain this to me?edit: Also, have we got any confirmation that this is a µT-related problem? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firon Posted November 18, 2005 Report Share Posted November 18, 2005 Lots of pictures in the thread, could make it load slowly for 56kers.What's the problem? You have to manually add client IDs to all programs for them to recognize it, I'm sure utorrent shows as unknown to most Azureus users for example.

Animorc Posted November 24, 2005 Report Share Posted November 24, 2005 No reason for screenshots I guess. Found some more.Unknown M/2-2Unknown AX/100Unknown az/2304The az... thing seems pretty funny. Is there a modded version of Azureus? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silverfire Posted November 24, 2005 Author Report Share Posted November 24, 2005 That might be a faked User-Agent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

splintax Posted November 25, 2005 Report Share Posted November 25, 2005 Lots of pictures in the thread, could make it load slowly for 56kers.Oh. Thanks It wouldn't have anything to do with Unicode support, would it? Is there any chance these programs will be fixed when ludde releases a version with Unicode support (since afaik there is one under construction)? Some of those IDs look like what you get when specifying the wrong encoding../me hates faked ID's... :mad:Agreed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firon Posted November 25, 2005 Report Share Posted November 25, 2005 Nah, these have nothing to do with UNicode support, it's mostly encrypted/fake client IDs. There's probably a few legit unknown clients in the list. Every client dev has to manually add client IDs to the list to recognize them. :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcorban Posted November 28, 2005 Report Share Posted November 28, 2005 I am curious why clients such as Burst, ABC, and Mainline are labeled normally ("Burst! 1.1.3", "Mainline 4.2.0") while other clients just get the generic "client/1234" label. It should be one or the other.Also wanted to note that the funky ASCII client IDs are not due to lack of unicode. Azureus has full unicode support and shows these weird clients as well.

Animorc Posted November 28, 2005 Report Share Posted November 28, 2005 The weird clients are either encrypting the client ID or faking it.As for the reason why some are not displayed correctly: It's because µTorrent doesn't recognize all. And all client IDs has to be written into the code for them to be translated correctly.I found one more ID:Plus121FN-EwIAzcRsBsIt's as most have figured out BitTorrent Plus 1.2.1 and wow what a messy client: ScreenshotsAt least it shows how many pieces that are downloaded Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boo Posted November 29, 2005 Report Share Posted November 29, 2005 and what tracker did you see this on Animorc?When I see a µTorrent in the peer list it is always only 1-5 µTorrent users Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firon Posted November 29, 2005 Report Share Posted November 29, 2005 I was connected to 20-25 µTorrents (out of 100) on one torrent today... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
