Phex is a open source P2P filesharing client which is based on the Gnutella network. It is a multi-plattform and spyware free. It offers advanced functionalities and integrates all common Gnutella extensions like multi-source downloads and advanced search features.

What's New:

* Configuration wizard helps to choose the basic configuration settings for Phex on first startup and after an important upgrade.
* New download configuration dialog with more options.
* Implemented concept of IconPacks that allows users to build own set of icons.
* New IconPack based on "Tango Project" (http://www.tango-project.org).

* Improved detection of invalid and spamming query results.
* New improved preference handling.

* Downloads report invalid candidate errors when they use a host name instead of an IP address.
* The upload queue used to report a wrong position and length value.
* A very low bandwidth limit caused connection threads to run into long lasting lock situations.
* When closing a search using the search button the search tab didn't reflect the closure.

There is no point in using P2P file sharing programs anymore, you run a great risk by continuing to use them.

Not if you know how to protect yourself. And although, those things (ip blacklisting etc) can't offer 100% protection, they are still good enough for avoiding those great risks

How much did the RIAA pay you to say that?
But anyways, torrents are the kings of P2P so I don't know why anyone would waste their time with Gnutella.

P2P Sucks! Bittorrent all the way!

Isn't BitTorrent also part of P2P?

Anyways what comes to me, it is still eMule. There's nothing quite like it content-wise.

Also, P2P itself is not dangerous if you download freely distributable content, such as the ones found in eMule Content Database.
