I recommend using either an old Limewire version without BitTorrent support or Phex for Gnutella, Azureus is BitTorrent. None of this Limewire Gnutellatorrent hybrid crap.

Yes the part about paying for the software. Allot of the software you find on the gnutella net will contain viruses are incomplete etc. You would be better off buying it.
