Help! I can't install Morpheus 2.0. I have a P-IV 1.7 based system running W2K (clean install/new format). When I try to install Morpheus, I get to the Java installation. Then it dies w/ the following error message:

"An i/o error occurred while installing a file. This is normally caused by bad installation media or a corrupt installation file." Any thoughts?

Try another gnutella client. BearShare, LimeWire, Gnucleus and Shareaza are very good (if not better) alternatives.

He?

Morpheus is based on the Gnucleus source and Gnucleus is written in c++, so why they need java?

Or did they write an own client now?

You should really get an update. Morpheus 2.0 is based upon last year's Jtella code (jtella.sf.net) and was developed by a former furthurnet developer (furthurnet.sf.net), and furthurnet was based upon furi, which is another gnutella client in java.

They dropped Gnucleus because of all the bloated features nobody needs, - like ultrapeers, swarming,...

I already have limewire installed, but frankly I don't think it's as good as morpheus. Otherwise I wouldn't be trying to install Morpheus :-) Anybody know what's causing this error? The error occurs while the installer is copying the file musiccitydll2.dll from C:\winnt\system32\musiccitydll2.dll. It says "an i/o error occurred while installing a file. This is normally caused by bad installation media or a corrupt installation file." Ideas?

Well, I found a copy of Morpheus 1.9 on the net, and installed that. It wouldn't connect to anything, but I installed Morpheus 2.0 over that, and it worked. Hello? I never saw anything saying that Morpheus 2.0 is a patch and won't install w/o 1.9!

Who needs ultrappers and swarming when you can get a buggy client with a lot of spyware?
