MUTE File Sharing is a peer-to-peer network that provides easy search-and-download functionality while also protecting your privacy.
It compiles as a fast, native application for many platforms (no Java, no Python, etc.).
MUTE protects your privacy by avoiding direct connections with your sharing partners in the network. Most other file sharing programs use direct connections to download or upload, making your identity available to spies from the RIAA and other unscrupulous organizations.
MUTE is based on research, and experiments show that it works quite well. MUTE's ant-inspired routing is light-weight, robust, and adaptive. Results from experiments in real MUTE networks show that the collective behavior of MUTE nodes quickly finds the shortest (or fastest) routing path between two nodes on the network.
What's New in This Release:
This release adds several major features that have been suggested by the community, including multi-source downloads and download queuing.
A new "anonymous friends" feature has been added, complete with human-readable mnemonics generated from each virtual address.
Network scalability has been improved, and several security issues have been fixed.
Changes have been made to the cryptography code so that it will compile with the latest version of GCC.
