 Taxster Review: XoloX
And XoloX was one of them - and I have to say, I was pleasantly surprised of how good this program actually was...
That said, XoloX still only shows the bare essentials that you need to know when finding a file - the name of the file, the type of media it is, and the size.
Oh, and one annoying thing about the display of the results is when you have to scroll down and continue to hold down the mouse button, the screen freezes while you move the scrollbar, and it isn't until you release it when the screen shows the rest of the results.

XoloX wasn't bundled with third party software either, a problem that is increasingly being recognized by users and that has recently reached its peak with Brilliant Digital's use of KaZaA as a "Trojan Horse" for its own application.
The development of XoloX, whose parent company is in the Netherlands, was discontinued in November after a decision by a Dutch court that ruled Dutch company FastTrack guilty of copyright infringement because of its KaZaA client.

XoloX is estimating 43 minutes to complete the download of over 100 megabytes.
That is, XoloX cannot connect to the machine that has the file, or the machine holding the file is already busy helping other people.
You can solve this problem either by waiting (eventually a busy machine can get unbusy), by choosing files with high scores (increasing the likelihood of finding an unbusy machine), or by deleting a file that is going nowhere from the transfer window and replacing it with an identical file from the search window.
