Totally messed up download ATM - Version: 2.2.5, 6/6/2009 11:01AM PST

I've been trying to download v2.2.5 via various browsers with total fail:
"You don't have permission to access /pub/amule/osx/2.2.5/aMule-2.2.5-OSX10.4+.dmg on this server.
Additionally, a 403 Forbidden error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request."
I am reporting the problem to them.

The last couple of versions presented here were source only and not a precompiled and working binary application. That is what caused the problems for the previous posters. This version, 2.2.5, is a ready to use application and works fine. To answer the question "who uses this network?" let's just say a whole lot of people, which is what makes it such a rich source of material. I have only two minor complaints. One, that it can get a little out of control if the active queue is too big, but I may be abusing it a little bit, not really wanting to babysit it. It would be nice if it had a little more developed queue control, although it may be that the nature of this network and protocol makes this somewhat of an inherent weakness. My second little complaint is that the whole interface locks during searches, which sometimes take a little while when using Kad. Not a big deal, but is always disconcerting.
Not even slightly Macintosh like. No menu bar. Copy and paste don't work in most places.
Not that bad once you get it going. The Kad search worked best
Found 3 copies of something I had been looking for without success on gnutella and bittorrent.
I'm only getting single digit KB/s download speeds at best.
Upload speed is whatever I set it to, so some people are getting good download speeds, just not me :-)
I'm not sure if I recomment aMule or not. VersionTracker won't let me leave that blank.
The best thing is that it connects to another independent network that is very much alive and well.
