Publisher's description
From Kiwi Alpha :Fast and anonymous downloads from the LimeWire, Morpheus, Grokster, BearShare and other Gnutella networks. Kiwi Alpha uses the same technology used by many of the leading P2P file sharing programs such as LimeWire, Morpheus, Grokster, and BearShare. Kiwi Alpha protects the privacy of the user by connecting anonymously to the networked community. With Kiwi Alpha you can easily download all media types including audio, video, images, documents, and software. To minimize the use of system resources Kiwi Alpha does not include a lame browser, a built-in player, or a chat room. That's why Kiwi Alpha performs great even on older systems. On the other hand, Kiwi Alpha features a handy play list, advanced search filters, and some nice options for fine-tuning the performance.
Version 2.0.2 has improved file filtering to protect against potentially malicious files and fixes a problem with the resizing of the search window.

Version: Kiwi Alpha 2.0.2
Pros: I like it and I'm keeping it. I love LimeWire, but Kiwi Alpha has much more search results. It connects to the whole Gnutella network,Limewire,BearShare,etcI noticed it used alot of memory, but that was the only downfall I could find. Kiwi Alpha shows no ads or popups,and my spy cleaners found ZERO infections. The downloads were fast and the search results were fast, also. I say try It, it's FREE! I give Kiwi Alpha 5 STARS,and TWO thumbs UP!
Cons: Takes up memory, close your other programs if you are short on RAM.

Version: Kiwi Alpha 2.0.2
Pros: This program has no pros it just sucks
Cons: Cons: your computer will not restart with kiwi running and you will loose memory for your internet browser. Downloads are to slow at finding a host. You have to wait 5 min for a connection some times. And the lack of downloadable programs/files starts to get annoying. I have also noticed with this one is it runs like Kazaa fast one min then slow the next.
