It seems this guy named Ian Clarke in London has come up with a way for you to become an anonymous "node" or host data files - no central server - no sign on - no trace info. I went to check it out, but did not download yet because I have no FLIPPIN idea what the hell you need to do.My technical knowledge is limited, but it looks a bit more involved than I have the resorces for.

Read the article,visit the site - very interesting stuff.
