I don't get it at all - my friend's using Shareaza on gnutella network, and it just works fine (he is not ultrapeer however) - and I don't think he uses some very outdated version (moreover shareaza keeps adversiting it supports g1 and g2 on its website)... So which clients do support gnutella (besides gtkg of course :D)? Thanks -- wixor ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
