[Bug 2541] Re: bad utf8 support in valknut

[Paul Dufresne]

From: "http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Direct_connect_file-sharing_application
The Direct connect protocol suffers from high bandwidth usage, unusual requirements for parsing, lacklustre internationalization support, and parts that seem to have been crafted to overcome network handling bugs in older versions of Microsoft Visual Basic (which NMDC was developed in)."

So I think Direct connect protocol is not UTF-8 aware.
Please follow http://dcplusplus.sourceforge.net/ADC-0.12.html
for a protocol that would fix that.
