Version: TrustyFiles Pro 3.1.0.2
Pros: With a myriad of P2P applications floating on the web, this perhaps ould be termed as one of the best options available.
The search option is one of the fastest I have encountered and hooks up with all possible networks such as Gnutella 1 & 2, eDonkey etc. and can deal with torrent technology as well. As far as download speed is concerned, it would be exceedingly difficult to benchmark because the speed would be dependant on individual seeds available of the users requirement. A further impediment to the speed would also be the bandwidth that each user is setting.
The interface is simple, however in order to optimize the software, the user is required to download a patch from another site which potentially could expose a novice user to some threats. If the user is not entirely aware of such issue, it may be well advised to dispense with this download that changes elements in the Windows XP Service Pack 2 security vulnerabilities.
Cons: The software has displayed unstability with certain firewall and virus softwares. Even on the site one user has suggested to run the software emulating Windows 98 & Me.
The software patch may create security vulnerabilities. Installing seems simple enough but carries issues in configurations.

Version: TrustyFiles Pro 3.0.0.4
Pros: I've always adored TrustyFiles. It has the most networks, simple clean user interface, the best search results and downloads. Not the fanciest but it absolutely does the job. Definitely worth it to spend some bucks to get this version without the annoying ads.

"Major compatibility problems with Windows Vista."
Pros: This program seems to run fairly smooth on Windows XP
Cons: If you have Windows Vista, (like I recently upgraded to) this program has numerous problems, including stalling. If you still have XP it is okay to use. If you have Vista, do not bother to download this program.

"Glitchy, Slow, and downloaded Nothing"
Pros: None
Cons: When starting the program you are inundated with banner ads. After that I tried to change my download folder and every time the prgram froze and crashed. So I memorized the the location in order to move them manually. It didn't matter because of the 5 downloads I tried ALL of them came up as NO SOURCES even though I was running Limewire simultaneously and the same files downloaded off the same network through Limewire. Also, it never did connect to Kazaa so it basically just looked at Morpheus and Limewire's files while never accessing one thing. Poor job with this glitchy program and let me go now so I can scrub my pc clean of this garbage.
