Every file shared via eMule appended with the EMULECOLECTION file extension has been hashed by means of the MD4 algorithm. The top-level MD4 file size, filename, hash and a number of secondary search attributes like codec and bit rate are stored in the eD2k servers and the Kad network which is serverless. Users are enabled to search for the filenames in the kad or servers and are presented with a unique identifier and filename that consist of top-level MD4 hash for the size of the file and the file itself which could be added to the downloads. When clients ask for the servers where other clients are utilizing that hash, the servers return a given set of IP or ports indicating the locations of clients sharing the file.
