You could do the same with Erlang or Ruby + eventmachine or Python + Twisted, but Node.js is the current hotness.

I don't have to download a new copy of uTorrent if I decide to use different ports. The client could probably just check periodically for a signed message from a central server (or a broadcast on the network itself) with instructions to cur

Addict? It seems to me that he's merely someone extremely passionate about something. This is also a case of one of the worst DRM-related fears coming to fruition. You no longer have (legal) access to a product you purchased. You're now ess

Don't use Bittorrent over Tor, people. It's bad for the network itself.

Reads from /dev/random will block when the entropy pool is empty. You can see the number of bits of entropy available on a Linux systems via: $ cat /proc/sys/kernel/random/entropy_avail If you need more, better randomness, check out the Ent

Definitely. Any amateur effort will generally involve SetWindowsHookEx() + DLL injection to capture keystrokes. The intention was to move this up to ring 0 eventually, but I decided to work on more lucrative things instead.
