Thanks, Pedro. eMule on MS Windows and on the same computer connects
without problems to Kademlia network, and I have left aMule running an
entire night and it did not stop saying "kad firewalled". I suspect
that the problem is aMule specific, as there is no progress even when
I stop my firewall on Linux.
