Product Description:

Poisoned is a frontend for the giFT daemon (http://giftproject.org/) and currently supports the following p2p networks:
  • OpenFT
  • Gnutella
  • FastTrack

What's new in this version:

  • new location for the giFT folder (this applies only to the included daemon and should fix the crash on startup bug as well as the issue where giFT wasn't able to connect to any users). If you're not using the included daemon (i.e. you compiled it yourself), giFT still uses the .giFT folder in your homedirectory. Important: this means you have to set your giFT preferences again, if you use the included daemon.
  • search table:
    new columns: artist and album
    customizable table columns
    now autosaves column configuration
  • itunes import
  • completed downloads: reveal in finder
  • new network code
  • minor bugfixes regarding synchronizing shared folders.

Operating System Requirements:

This product is designed to run on the following operating systems:

  • Mac OS X 10.3
  • Mac OS X 10.2

Additional Requirements:

  • Mac OS X 10.2 or higher

Poisoned was a total dog for me for a while, but still got consistent (if not slow) downloads.

Two things help d/l speed (and network connectivity - Ares and OpenFT in particular)

1) Port Forwarding. Set it up in your router / modem, or network preferences in your using OS X's software to connect. You have to look at each protocols settings in the preference pane the find the values (or set ones you prefer).

2) Sharing. Set a folder with a bunch of media (MP3s, Movies, .dmgs) on the top level and top level only, add this as one of your shared directories. It'll take a whole to catalouge, but connecting to all the networks and some download speeds (and d/l reliability) will improve.

Now, if the developer can fix the OpenFT engine's occasional total-utter-crashes and the odd RWoD (Rainbow Wheel of Death) that results in a force quit and a preference purge then this'd be a pretty sweet, free, alpha release. And maybe that universal thing as well.

...but it still needs work. The developer was away for over a year. It needs to be updated to a Universal Binary.
