Thank you! I've downloaded so much stuff via XDCC that wasn't available in torrent form, or even sold anywhere.

Ahh, memories -- memories of waiting in a queue to download something only to forget to enable "auto-accept DCC send" and have it time out some time around 2 AM!

Thanks for inventing XDCC :) IRC and online chat was a lot more fun 15-20 years ago.
