`
`This is exactly one of the problems which Dr. Fred Kantor attacked when
`he wrote his program FWKCS (current version FwKCS123.ZIP) which creates
`content signatures that are used primarily to detect if duplicate files have
`been uploaded on a BBS regardless of filename.
`The SPA has licensed his
`product but is having logistics problems in getting commercial software
`companies to run a content signature collector diskette on their products.
`If this method was endorsed and used by BBS operators, it would be virtually
`impossible to upload a commercial product on BBS's.
`The main reason for his
`product was to prevent some people from renaming files to upload and get
`upload credits.
`It can reject duplicates or commercial software from upload
`using the database of content signatures.
`
`I would suggest you contact the SPA and voice your suggestion to overcome the
`logistics problems they are having and get their member companies to endorse
`the FWKCS product which they already licensed from Dr. Kantor. This means
`they need to get the commercial companies to gather the content signatures
`(similar but much more accurate than 32 bit CRC) and get them in the database.
`
`1 and The
`FWKCS has been used for years on the largest BBS's such as Channel
`Invention Factory.
`when BBS's first install the program they typically
`uncover a large number of megabytes of space from deleting the duplicate files
`that FWKCS finds.
`One major BBS reclaimed 600 MB!
`Additionally it
`unzips incoming files and checks for viruses using the latest version of
`McAfee's anti-virus program.
`FWKCS is available on the BBS's mentioned
`and I noticed a few older version on internet sites.
`
`I'll get it and put it up on my 24 hour BBS in New York later today.
