Our Review: Of all the Gnutella clients out there Furi has to be one of the most comprehensive. From the colourful splash screen onwards it goes one better than the others in terms of features and settings. All the typical functions are accounted for, plus IRC intergration, Host management and auto-connect features which give it the edge over many of its rivals. It is only beta at present and doesn't work as well as it could, but if you have any trouble there is always the ever-reliable Napster and WinMX to fall back on (I don't know why you'd leave them in the first place!?). NB. For those who don't want to deal with the JAVA setup can download a fully executable installer from http://www.jps.net/williamw/furi/
