[http://www.overnet.com Overnet] is a File Sharing program.<br>
[http://www.overnet.com Overnet] does not have [[server|servers]] at all. It is a complete [[P2P|Peer-2-Peer]] network where all [[client|clients]] connect directly to each other.

Just as the [[FAQ_eD2k/Kademlia|eD2k network]], [http://www.overnet.com Overnet] knows when files are different even if they have the same file size and name, ensuring that unique files are properly presented and that when several identical files are found it can download from those independent sources at the same time.<br>
This also allows you to create links to the files.

However, [http://www.overnet.com Overnet] is a closed protocol. This means that it's specifications are unknown and it's designers aren't willing to show them to the public.
