Ok maybe I'm being a little hard. But I'd like to see the program properly checked out as to its characteristics by people who have tested most gnutella programs for plusses & faults. Your thread would have been better suited in the gnutella dev discussion section or that area. Rather than putting it into a specific client section, thus rubbishing that particular client without any evidence of performance. Sorry if I seem hard, but I have to weigh things up as they appear. I'd look forward to a proper tech check on your program. Will look forward to such a report. Perhaps your program will get all +'s. Time will tell.
