"sources info" Links are dead

The "sources info" link next to each ed2k link at FLM no longer works. They were supplied by tothbenedek.hu, a personal website in Hungary run by Benedek Toth.
After years of work, problems and joy, due to many reasons including change of interest, I've decided to discontinue this project and stop hosting it.
The "sources info" service has been dramatically less useful in the past few months anyway, since it depends on servers and so many servers have shut down.

I had been hoping Benedek Toth would fix his service to compensate, but now that won't happen. Hopefully someone will pick up the source and resurrect the service, with improvements. But it's not feasible in most countries any more.

Thanks for the info.

I'll find another link and will change it.

Can anyone confirm that the new 'sources info' site ed2kstats.power-portal.to still works? Haven't had a result for days, even though I can see in eMule that the files in question have plenty of sources. :(

Yeah, has been for a few days, I am still hoping it's just a temporary glitch. (The first time this happened, the website was still up but with a message that the service was shutting down, which isn't true here.)

Only ghost can change the address, access to the source code and raw database is required. It would perhaps help if someone knew of a good subsitute.
