    What have you heard about it?

    Supposed to enable free communication between users-they say free/no adware when it's officially released in December.

    I think it would be a boon to us if it is as they promote it.

    I'm thinking of taking a swing at the beta version.

    it's from the same people that made Kazaa so my guess is it's going to have spyware and adware in it as well.I wouldn't be suprised anyway.
    Maybe you could share your opinion after you tried out the beta-version?

    It&#39;s made by the people who initialy developed KaZaA, not not the people who &#39;sell&#39; it now (sharman).

    I have heard it&#39;s completly spyware free.

    The program ROCKS&#33; .. the best voice or IP program on the internet by far. its almost CD quality voice.

    The key to confusion free communications is, to mute your mic when you are finished speaking. if both parties do this the program works amazingly well
