Actually, the giFT network is an open-source version of the FastTrack (read: KaZaa) network. They have some difficulty though, with not enough search nodes on the network (I can hardly ever manage to get a search node on my po' 56kbps :/), but there is a plug-in available so that you can access the real FastTrack network - with all of its millions of dead files, porn and junk :P Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?

urpmi apollon
Uses the GiFT (KaZaa) network as far as I know.
giFT is a daemon that enables you to connect to multiple networks
including FastTrack (the kazaa network), OpenNap, Gnutella and the best
network of all OpenFT (openft is developed by the giFT team so you can
consider it the native protocol).
Apollon is a KDE gui for giFT and you can get them all from PLF mirrors.
I really recommend giFT (console lovers should try giFTcurs instead of
apollon), consider running an OpenFT searchnode there is a shortage of
those.
cheers,
Alaa
