I very much doubt that Frost is the cause of the problems which we see on Freenet. It cannot in any case be stopped, but it only polls small KSKs, and it only does that every 45 minutes or so. Incidentally it does not directly slow down downloads; KSKs/SSKs are treated separately from CHKs.
We cannot prohibit Frost; people will use it whether we want them to or not. Freenet needs to be able to deal with it, but personally I see no evidence that Frost is responsible for Freenet's problems. Feel free to find some.
