toadnode, a neat little gnutella client that used to be shareware that expired after a 15-day trial, is now
free.
they don't offer any explanation for this sudden change of heart, but i checked and there's no spyware or ads added. i guess it's true that no-one pays to register shareware nowadays, so they gave up and just decided to give it away...
