No because it only hashes a small portion of a file, it's practily useless for error correction, there been alot of reports that some sig2dat links usally mp3's got corrupted on purpose, this was done with ease because the hashing was inadaquate.Quote:

wouldnt using sig2dat guarentee you getting a REAL download file? :unsure:
That's why other protacols such as ed2k and bittorent use sha1 hashing which hashes the whole file making the file nearly uncorruptable as it spreads over the network... [/b][/quote]
So, are you saying that bt and ed2k are better than the verifides or just the search files on KaZaa Lite? Not being smart, I really do want to know your opinion. I really like bt. :smilie4:
