Cabos and Frostwire are java based and they are great porgrams . Java bashing seems to only happen with those who have crappy computers .. This thing runs fine on my pc .

The upgrade is pretty good . I like how i can add more connections .. Good program . I like it .

If you dont mind java. Google for FROSTWIRE which is made by Limewire team and no paying for pro version crap. If JAVA is not your thing then ARES 1.8.8, soulseek and morpheus (with annoying ads but needed) are the best alternate. Phex is no no.

To Nikkie,

No, it's time to get a new P2P app. If MS can't get people to upgrade so that they can use Vista, the makers of this app haven't a hope in hell off getting people to upgrade just so that a java app runs at a reasonable speed.

No, java based apps suck 100% of the time on any machine.

java only sucks for people with s***ty computers . if java bothers your pc , its time to upgrade .

phex is a nice , clean and straight forward program . gnu is a decent network and i use it all of the time with cabos . limewire is ok but phex gives you more connections which means more sources etc.

limewire wants you to pay for a free service . its not worth it . i have even tried limewire pro and its crap .

this program needs a few big fixes and its ready to go . i get an error when i download a file that stopped . i delete the file and then try again but i get an error etc.

If you're gonna choose a Java client, I prefer LimeWire (and it has Firewall-to-firewall support as well). But Phex is an ok program

I like Gnutella, even though I don't like loading that stupid Java engine. Personally I'd prefer Shareaza...

Java-based applications suck, and the Gnutella network sucks as well. That's two huge strikes against it.

Phex is a nice, clean, straight forward interface for the Gnutella Networks. It's easy to use and Defaultedly speedy as configured.
I like it as a P2P alternative.
