An alternative method of PHE is implemented in [[Azureus]] version 2307-B29.
[http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?thread_id=9517694&forum_id=40629]
It is called Message Stream Encryption.
 
[[µTorrent]] will implement PHE in a later release. [http://forum.utorrent.com/viewtopic.php?pid=44229#p44229]
 
==Operation==
The Azureus method uses either the infohash or a [[D-H]] exchange to establish the key, then it either uses [[RC4]] as the encryption method or just send the message as [[plaintext]].
