| I'll be the pig I've been using it since it started (I love to try all competing programs ). It connects to openfastract (gift homebrew network), gnutella and fasttrack.Pro: light memory usage, wonderful interface and VERY easy to use for a newbie Cons: dowload speeds aren't great, the selection of files is worst than Limewire (for French and English stuff at least in both music, movies, programs etc...) Bottom line: an alternative to LW for mac users but it is still an "hostage client" (it doesn't support UP and Fasttrack supernodes, so it rely on limited capacity of other vendors UP to survive, it can't be the numero uno client for a network for this reason). It also doesn't support all the latest protocol enhancements which affect its download speed and searh horizon. Great for newbies (easy to get going, intuitive) but not for power users. I was using it mainly to dl LW couldn't find last year, but now there is 3 times the stuff on LW available than there is on Gift clients (Kceasy, poisoned, xforce and others). Ciao
