Summary:  Mldonkey is trying to connect RFC 1918 hosts generates massive ARP 
traffic

Original Submission:  The setup is like this: Mldonkey running on a NAT 
firewall with a 10.0.0.0/8 internal network and dsl modem. The firewall is 
blocking all incoming RFC 1918 traffic but mldonkey is generating packets for 
different hosts on the 10.0.0.0/8 network. This is generating a lot of ARP 
traffic like because there are no peers on the internal network.
The fix would be an option for mldonkey to ignore all RFC 1918 peers.

Version used mldonkey-2.5-4 compiled from src.rpm
