I've been trying the program since it's early days and it has never really worked well for me.

Download times have always been a huge issue - right from some of the earliest versions when nothing would download no matter how popular the file might be... . Yeah... I've been waiting for *years* for this to work better :-P

And now it's worse since I can't seem to put iSwipe on my work hard drive at all without it trying to reestablish itself on my OS 10.3.9 system hard drive and eating up all the (small) disk space with temporary files that are immediately blown out to the full size of the incoming (eventually and perhaps over a period of days) files.

If it's going to do that, then either the files will have to come a lot faster so I can quickly move them off the hard drive or the program will have to leave a really small 'step' on the hard drive while it ssssslllooowwwwllly fills up a file so after I've waited and waited, I can move the downloaded files off the hard drive. This 'download slowly, bloat up quickly' doesn't work for my hard drive or my patience.

Which at least is a change over just getting turned off by the lack of downloaded files at all - that's the usual reason I just give up on this and go back to Acquisition or LimeWire.

Too bad, too, since, if this program ever gets all the bells and whistles right, I would certainly donate.

So close and yet so [insert your choice of 'slow' or 'bloated']

It may also help if the programmer or someone who he trusts would actually drop in every now and again to the iSwipe yahoo group he established so that someone knowledgeable could perhaps answer some of the questions that trickle in from others who obviously want this program to excel.
