Briliant BitTorrent client that integrates eMule and Kademlia.
The reason why
the evolution of eDonkey was called eMule was because even though they where similar the second was more powerful than the first, something that is comparable with the comparison of between a real donkey and mule. That is why when it came to developing a new client that had all the strength of the eMule network summed to that of the
BitTorrent network, the developers decided to name it after one of the strongest animals in the world,
Lphant.
The
two most used P2P networks, that are also the ones that have the largest amount of files, together in a single program.
Lphant has managed to combine the virtues of both networks to allows to search for the torrents that we want in the main
trackers, and if it doesn't find it, it starts to search for it over the
ed2k and
kademlia networks.
This function bestows the application with
great speed, because it allows the files to be downloaded from various sources, preferably
BitTorrent, thus assuring unlimited speed and availability.
One of the most interesting functions it the possibility to
control it remotely, thus allowing the user to keep track of the downloads without having to be in front of the computer that is running
Lphant.
Nevertheless it is important to underline that the
Lphant 4 download notifications have to be ignored, because after its purchase by Discordia Ltd., the
clients P2P functions have been deactivated.
