    The author isn't seriusly working on this application. If you want a fast, no thrills p2p client,
    http://www.aresgalaxy.org
    is probably for you. If you use another bit torrent client, once you run the prog, go to control pannel in the prog, and click bittorrent tab, and de-asociate it from .torrent, and run your bit torrent client.

    I installed this and RARELY does it ever connect to Ares network. Connects to Gnutella fine however. Still no G2 support? Have not tried Fasttrack with KCEasy since they have officially discontinued support. I'm glad they added a feature to disable the built-in browser, that was annoying. If you want to download from Gnutella network and prefer a non-java client (Cabos, Limewire) this is the one for you.

    Nowadays ,
    seeing P2P programs which are only
    a plugin extension whatever of official P2P clients,
    sort of hybrids,
    octopus jumping over different P2P networks , useless ,
    seeing these is a pity.
    Also Looking at the code of this program
    all make me wonder about the future
    of similar garbage .

    If this program was soley being used with FastTrack (available via optional plug-in), I would give it a 5. It always connects to that network in a snap and is an execellent alternative to K-Lite. However, in my experience I was barely able to connect to Gnutella or Ares. Gnutella performance in my opinion was mediocre compared to Limewire and Shareaza. I couldn't even connect to OpenFT, which is the main selling point of the program (i.e. graphical front end for OpenFT) even after numerous node updates and disabling of other plugins.

    I think this program has potential, notwithstanding some serious shortcomings. The author needs to focus on improving OpenFT support for a better out of the box experience.

    I look forward to the next version.
