In 2004, BitTorrent traffic was responsible for two-thirds of all traffic on the internet, and BitTorrent wasn't even the most popular peer-to-peer file-sharing tool. The File-sharing Analysis and Vulnerability Assessment (FAVA) pod began researching P2P tools and protocols, such as BitTorrent, DirectConnect, eDonkey, KaZaA, and several others, to develop methods to search this traffic for intelligence. "We have developed the capability to decrypt and decode both KaZaA and eDonkey traffic to determine which files are being shared, and what queries are being performed."
