Search Results - Whats Going On ?

[GhostShip]

It seems we have been seeing some activity on the search results that for those on early patches or non blocking ones will result in them receiving a message to go to winmxgroup.com to update.

While I was as suprised as anyone at the start of this campaign it does have a sense of poetic justice to those host file users who for a year and a half have flooded the WPN with fakes to be on the receiving end of some not generated by Macrovisdion/Media Sentry.

If you have seen this message you are either not using a blocking patch or your patch is out of date, upgrading to the anti fake 3.0 version would be the sensible option.

For those not aware of the damage caused by using the host file fix please take some time to read this,

No one has disputed that it is the host file users doing the damage to the WPN, isnt it time then they stopped attacking the rest of us ?

i about time they get a taste of their own medicine. shame though that their response to this is KM is attacking them again now and he is hijacking everyone's results. Trully amazing, absoloutly trully amazing, i mean he must be connected to every singe primary on the WPN now to conrol thier results. Whats he using now for his internet connection Jodrell Bank. I mean he must have some upload and download capacity to do all that. Makes me laugh and i can say is i voted for this, This is the best thing for the network the fewer unprotected primarys and secondrys on the wpn the better, and leave the idiots to their own overun part of the network that they take ages to connect to.They dont deserve to be on this great network after all the hard work that is put into keeping the riaa off it and they give them a great big golden key.

it is like using an abacus, and screaming to all the calculator users "One day, all these beads on a stick will make a comeback!"

it is like riding in the back of a chariot, and screaming to all of the car drivers "One day this mode of transportation will be the winner!"

this is what using the hosts patch is. Something who's time is gone, but some misguided people can not let go of. But it is worse than that. Using it actually harms the ones who are trying to make advancement, and strangles the bandwidth of people who choose not to use it. That is beyond wasting their own time and energy. It is wasting others' time and energy who do not even agree with it.

For this reason, I think that all the publicity possible of the .dll should be enacted on the host users. Not only to offer them a better solution, but to stop the unwanted flow of junk to the others who already have made a better choice.

If it were up to me, I would add a key to the dll, that was interpreted by the peer cache servers, to only allow dll users to connect to them. (Yes I mean filtering out the hosts users and seperating the network.)

I don't say this to be mean, or uncaring, but I for one am tired of everyone of us being subjected to a diseased network because of a few who just want to be stubborn.

I mean, in all reality, here is the simple truth:
Anyone who is completely informed as to how the patches work, and have absolutely no bias towards one or the other, would choose the dll over the hosts patch. ANYONE would. There simply is no reason for the hosts patch to be used at all. Only someone who is biased, or stubborn, or has an ulterior motive, would use the hosts file. And that is the complete simple truth.

So, if some want to be a thorn in the sides of the rest of us, they should be seperated to their own little group of absurdity.

That's just the way I see it.

Best Regards, and Be Good!
