Product Description:

Drumbeat 1.6.6 is a maintenance release of our popular P2P application for Mac. Drumbeat allows you access to more than 800,000 available Users, 450 million files, and over 20 Petabytes of information. Drumbeat connects you to more than 100 servers simultaneously, has a simple but powerful user interface, and is easy to use, even if you've never heard of an .mp3.

Important Notes / Known Issues:

IMPORTANT NOTE FOR JAGUAR USERS: You MUST first trash all previous versions of Drumbeat and make sure to EMPTY THE TRASH before activating the current version of Drumbeat. There is a bug in Mac OS 10.2 which causes some applications left in the trash to activate in error. Failing to empty the trash may result in the inability to run the current version successfully.

Selecting text in the Search For: area and then dragging the text will cause Drumbeat to crash. We are working to correct this issue as quickly as possible.

Deleting the first item in either the Search History Popup Menu or the User History Popup Menu, or the item already selected, does not work. To delete the first, or selected item in either list, first select another item, then re-select the initial item while holding down the Command Key.

At times, a download may appear to be stalled. Selecting (highlighting) the file in the Tasks List may cause the file to start reporting correctly again.

What's new in this version:

Drumbeat 1.6.6 is a maintenance release whose only addition is to disable the forced Auto-Update feature in 1.6.5 due to the release of our totally new Drumbeat 2. This will allow non-Drumbeat 2 users to continue using version 1.x. For more information on the new release, please see the listing for Drumbeat 2 and Drumbeat X2.

EXCELLENT! - Version: 2.0.1, 10/20/2004 06:37PM PST

HI GUYS! I just say: don't wait longer. Download it right now, Drumbeat 2.0 is now the best piece of peer to peer software for Mac you may desire. I use Mac Os 9.2.2 and it works great! With Drumbeat, you'll get the greatest deal of results in searching any kind of files (sometimes in less than half a second!), which you can't get with other p2p applications. Drumbeat is very stable and has got amazing features like inner files preview (you don't need to open any other app to do it!), files resume, users chat, useful search filters, etc... And please believe me: GroundLevel customer care service is nothing less than EXCELLENT!!! Any question or help you may need, just contact them and you'll see... They will always reply you even sooner than 24h hours! Jospy70

STILL unable to copy files without cutting all letters from the 31th onward in version 2 for mac 9. It's extremely bothersome and I wrote it to them long time ago. They simply don't care.

system 9 only 37 letters - Version: 1.6.0, 12/29/2003 10:07AM PST
