GiftBoX0.9b7

This is simply the best p2p program ive used on a mac yet.

It was great fun but some fun has to end so this product has stopped development. Pleas go to www.sceneware.nl or www.reloadmedia.nl for other usefull services ;-) Cheers J!

Can Some one give me a hint to how this dam thing works????

Searches don't work. All I get are "no stats-provider found" errors. Lame interface. No help or docs are included either.

How the hell do you use this thing?

always crashes on startup 10.1.5

Always crashes on startup!! (mac os 10.1.5)

A lot more performant than LimeWire and Acquisition! A real gift, indeed!

Very good software for beta, works very well and if you just leave the daemon running in the background and quit the application it uses very little cpu. Very nice app

Love the interface, easy to use, but it doesnt seem to write the preferences to disk, if you put in a directory for your sharing or downloading and quit the app, the paths arent there, maybe its just me...

preferences should be updated to more friendly GUI... i still having trouble with relocating download folder to other HD-i did put full path in prefs-still cant get to work...its Downloads files in my home dir, which i dont really like...

Beta 7 works fine - great stuff.

works like crazy for me :-) and it's a beta under heavy development ... so don't worry about the prefferences that don't work and the lack documentation. I love the look, simplicity and ease of use!!

Downloaded giftbox, moved it to desktop, started it and pressed "Start" button. Display changed to "Daemon On" for about a second and then switched back to "Off". Konsole says something about "connection died", that's all. As Giftbox comes without any documentation, I'm stuck. At least I found a web page telling me what to enter in that openft preference page (all entries were empty). Well... I don't rate this app, because I can't test it. But an app that comes with no documenation how to set up this thing and doesn't run out of the box is - in my opinion - pure crap. I'll stick with Acquisition.

GiftBoX is a cool Cocoa program, and it works quite fast. However, it has very little files! When I search for new songs or artists, it doesn't have them! Also, it only lets you open one search window at a time, and you can't categorize the files by the # of hosts. Basically, I think most people should stick with Acquisition or Limewire for now.

well if you install giftbox and start the daemon u have openft running in iswipe (1.3bx) without touching fink;)

I find this program to be very useful. While it does not have all the features of, say, LimeWire, it does a very good job with what it has. Preferences do not seem to stay, though. Not that it really matters. What I would like to see is being able to open the files in the download area, instead of having to go to ~/giFTDownloads or anywhere else. Yeah, I'm lazy. :D

awesome program! very beautiful, stable and virtually every download i've tried has worked. Excellent job!:]

No documentation , but the best lol :D

I have to pan this because of one EVIL feature, which prompts this writer to ask, "What the fsck?" This client has a feature called 'Leave on even when you've quit it.' Exsqueeze me? And guess what, if you deselect that, so that it allegedly quits when you ask it to, the MOFO remains on anyhow. How do I know this? I tried to throw it out in the trash and couldn't because it was still running. That's horsehockey. Dump this thing yesterday.

Hm. Lack of documentation prevents me from using it. I have no clue how to set this up. Anyone help?

Finally, a quick downloader with a brushed metal interface. This is so fast, it makes both Acquisition and Limewire look like Ford Pintos.

The Best Peer2Peer on Mac. Can be hard to set up but when you have it working its great. if i could give it 6 stars i would. Makes Acquisition look like a joke

No docs, no help, naza, zip, rien. Throw us a friggin' bone here!

Easy, beautiful and it's working great ! This is the shit :-)

No read me. No help. No info at website - not suprising with current legal climate of file sharing. Have to have daemon addresses to add manually. Nicest looking p2p client yet for OS X.

This is simply the best p2p program ive used on a mac yet.
