Too good to be True
Well...it's Adware at least 
Owned by Cydoor...yep that's the adware that usually gets flagged up on a unprotected PC by Spybot S&D and Adaware
off the website:
From the license Agreements:
I would presume it also logs usage tracks aswell, and it looks like it integrates with explorer (toolbar add-on).
I wonder if some bright spark will release a castrated version (aka "old" Kazaa-lite)

I'm running the normal version, but ran Microsoft's AntiSpyware to remove the adware.

Exeem lite works fine - i've had 3.4 gb of downloads so far.
You need to open firewall port 4000 to allow the connection node or you wont get any searches.
It works very fast, and a handy thing is to use the NEW tab to see whats on, as its quite limited at the moment - 16-25000 files - about 6.4 terrabytes.

Aparently they have removed the spyware from the official version. That was the last thing I heard.

It does take a long while to "warm up" and then it comes back with things.
