    piolet 1.4 your thoughts?

    well the new version of piolet has arrived, i love it personally, but some of the comments in the news section have gotten some people different thoughts about using piolet. just because it has an ad, and offers a helpful search companion for ie, people get all freaky about it, this si the right direction for piolet to go i think, pablo is trying to make a profit for his hard work that he puts into developing an application.

    anyway what are your thoughts?
    A great man once said, it's better to go forward, cause if you go backwards you may trip, or cause someone to fall.

    No I will not fix your computer.

    you know you should really give linux a try. you know the funny thing about the l2cache on the old pentium 2 really didnt give me the power to do the multimedia stuff that a guy like me wants to do.

    Poilet

    Piolet reminds me of Napster. It however has no server. I think this is the way to go. Tired of Gnutilla because it is too slow.

    I dont like Piolet
    People keep saying it has these great download speeds yet Im on a cable modem and I can't download for S***!
    I dont understand, the thing that I know is happening is that Piolet keeps dropping and losing sources when I'm downloading so let's say I'm downloading at 50k and I lose a source, I'll go back to 10k for some reason and piolet won't reconnect to that user or another one.

    I gotta say it least it finally works for me although it has a few quirks like download speeds seem slower, I'm getting queued every now and then, and the uploads act weird. I'm not sure if anyone's got a complete upload. It seems to cancel then restart over and over.
