Kademlia weak against some attacks. Consider S/Kademlia

[GoogleCodeExporter]

The vanilla Kademlia protocol is weak against certain classes of attacks which 
may be relevant for this use case. These are elaborated on in a paper that 
introduces S/Kademlia, which tries to mitigate them.

Of particular interest may be the measures they take to avoid adversarial 
routing in the DHT by way of multiple disjoint lookups. I have attached the 
relevant paper.
