Hi, everyone, welcome back to the Fall 2007 semester. This post is a follow up to my previous post on instructions about how to get DC++ working at Stony Brook University. DC++ is a very fast and reliable file sharing client. But please do keep things legal. I do not endorse using DC++ for illegal purposes.
Please following the previous tutorial located here. The reason I wrote a part 2 to this tutorial is because after going though the tutorial, some people are getting this error.
<CroBot> This hub is running version 0.3.36 of the Shadows DirectConnect Hub Software.
That error can mean two things:
- You are not sharing enough data, you need to share 2GB’s or more. Hash them.
- You have too few upload slots available. Go to settings and sharing and make 5 upload slots.
Doing these two things will allow you to connect to DC++ successfully!
Remember, our hub name is sbushare.no-ip.info. Use DC++ Legally!





If you keep up with my blog, you would know that I’m a regular at Digg.com. A social networking website and if you are familiar with Digg, then you should be familiar with the “Digg effect“. The Digg effect is term coined to mean the amount of digg users to visit your website to causing a server downtime.
Mozilla released it’s Firefox Campus Edition today, which was disappointing for me at least. It comes with the core Firefox browsing engine along with three extensions. What ONLY 3? I was expecting it to come with at least 5 NEW features or at least a new theme. The extensions that it comes with are FoxyTunes, Zotero and StumbleUpon.
Since I left my summer job, I’ve been developing a website that my friends (Andi and Joey) and I have come up with. SBUGuide.com. It’s short for Stony Brook University Guide. I’m doing this because I realized that there was no centralized location for prospective students to get information about the university and no website to help current students out. That’s why we’re taking the challenge to bring all those missing tiers together in one website. Yeah Stony Brook’s 


For the past 2 days I’ve been obsessed by the mysteries of the Ouija Board and even bought a 1974 vintage version of the board game online. The first day that I was playing with it, some crazy things happened that are unexplainable. Apparently how the Ouija Board works is that you put your finger on this triangle device and spirits are suppose to talk to you. I was surprised at it’s accuracy.
