Not bad, could be improved
Pros: I agree with many of the pro reviews I have read here. Having used many p2p networks, I can say that I honestly found many files here that I have never seen elsewhere. Also many of the same corrupt files. But back to the positive. There appears to be no spyware. The search feature is easy to use, the skin design clear, and it keeps your searches on separate tabs to refer back to. Also, previous incomplete downloads restart automatically when you log on the next time. Now....
Cons: Unlike Limewire, Kazzalite, Bearshare etc. this has to be one of the *slowest networks I have come across. Nice to find rare video files, but be prepared to spend about a week just downloading any one of them. And I have a broadband cable connection. The wait list on files in huge, and I am accustomed to seeing the words 'pending' and 'searching' a lot. Previous searches are not saved in the search field, there is no way to search for a file of a particular size (which would give you better results since once the tab fills up, it stops searching, as well as eliminating small virus files.) There appears to be no way to limit the number of uploads from others. Very few users have searchable folders. The program for me on Windows 98 is more stable than Limewire, but less than KazaaLite. I would say give this a shot but don't expect miracles.
