'One-click access to third party public blacklists'
Sounds like an IPFilter to me. Go team!
Odd for Sharman to go from the King of all spyware apps to a 100% free model. Doesn't their agreement with BDE still stand?
Is this still a Gnutella client?

Pay close attention to the end user license agreement and installation options. For more information, read Download.com's guide to adware.
they never did change, but they do claim that it's ad ware instead of spyware. like that makes a difference.
"Gnutella the underlying opensource protocol used by Morpheus."
yup, still gnutella. it uses the GnucDNA core, so when that gets G2 so will morpheus.

• No Spyware - Uh........... It still has some bundled with the installer.
• Over 50% smaller in file size from Morpheus 3.1 - Oh they found the compile for release for smallest file size option in vs .net
• Superior global search capabilities - GnucDNA
• One-click access to third party public blacklists - Something actually usefull
• Increased stability & performance, improved meta data handling and the
ability to use your own default media player - GnucDNA, and some common sence
• Advanced technology to verify a file in chunks as it's downloaded for
better file integrity and improved partial file sharing - TrigerTree? Yep, it's in the DNA, GnucDNA
• Maximized bandwidth usage, improved network efficiency, up to 50%
reduced traffic, and faster search results - Once again it's in the DNA, GnucDNA
• Scanning Images and Video files for meta info for more exacting searches - GnucDNA once again
• Worldwide public proxy server connectivity as easy as 1-2-3 - Almost useless for the average person.
"yup, still gnutella. it uses the GnucDNA core, so when that gets G2 so will morpheus."
Well you also know that Swabby and the GnucDNA/ Gnucleus team has already implemented the small things required for G2, except for Bizti, which is on the way.
Do they have to make a "big" "new" release everytime the GnucDNA is updated? even though the current is 0.7.5, they are using 0.6.x, so they are still sort of out of date already, except that the GnucDNA is seperate and easy to update.
