Originated from Mainland China, QQLive is an innovative program that allows multiple users watch Internet videos on-line at the same time while enjoy high quality of multi-medias. Because of this good service provided by QQLive, a growing number of users are installing QQLive onto their computers. 

The main reason that QQLive provides much better quality for on-line videos than traditional players is that QQLive employs P2P-based stream media playing technique. While QQLive provides good quality for online video playing, corporate network administrators may face the challenge that a considerable amount of bandwidth will be consumed dramatically if QQLives are installed and run in company computers without any management. Worse yet, QQLive has built-in firewall evasion techniques that traditional firewalls cannot detect and block QQLive traffics.
