That is a great way to get stuff... We found a decentralized program. It doesn't have a server. Each computer uses broadcast traffic to show what files it has, and then you can download it. Completely secure, and completely non-tracable. We also get 1megabit downloads here at school off the dorm network with it....Only works on lans though.
