Cool application, but there are only 4 networks, so not very useful. This is after forwarding ports in router and opening firewall, I confirmed port is open so nothing blocking it and I can download fine. Would be nice if you could minimize to system tray without having to use third party applications.

Not bad. I like the minimalist approach, and the adequate set of options. My only wish, for now, is that the filter could be set to "Music" (or whatever you choose) by default. Rates a solid 4.5.

No nags with those damn moving buttons like two other programs have, even if they are supposed to be freeware. Cabos is clean, efficient and just plain awesome. If only I could give it a ten!

it's ok.. but i find bearshare lite/pro 5.x.x still works great on my computer, and does not have as much junk files as limewire etc...

if torrents and soulseek were never invented, and i still believed the gnutella network wasnt dead in the water, this would definitely be my filesharing app of choice. any step away from java is a step in the right direction.

"Great" Easy to use, fast downloads, fast searches, it doesn't take up a lot of space, and when downloading it doesn't slow down other programs you are running. Better than all of the other programs like it.

"Doesn't know what to share." It is simple to use. Easy to install. But it doesn't know what folder to share. It always shares the default folder, no matter what other folder you specify.

"Cabos 0.7.6 is old! Use Cabos 0.8 instead." The latest version of Cabos is available at: http://cabos.sourceforge.jp/Cabos 0.8 supports Mojito DHT integration (Better locates those rare files and makes it easier to resume stalled downloads. ) Cabos 0.7.6 is old version!

The best sharing program, only could be better the day they drop java and make it native windows soft. No adware, no spyware, clean interface.

The biggest pro for me is the fact that it actually gives me what I ask for and not a bunch of porn, documents, and zip files that may or may not have anything to do with my searches. And above it all, it seems fast as compared to others I have used. Some of the files I have downloaded have indeed been porn disguised as legit files. A lot of the time you can't tell what it is until you try to play it. But that isn't Cabos' fault. It's the nozzles that upload the crap. Cabos can't catch everything

Hmm it is free It is so silly to work with. The only thing that it was good at was finding news on its on list.. That it did all the time. I tried it out for 10 minuts--then I meant it was not worth more. And no help file. I found no help in this..
