ANts P2P Download Page

This is the official ANts P2P download page.

ANts P2P realizes a third generation P2P net.
It protects your privacy while you are connected and makes you not trackable,
hiding your identity (ip) and crypting everything you are sending/receiving from others.



"I worry about my child and the Internet all the time, even though she's too young to have logged on yet.
Here's what I worry about. I worry that 10 or 15 years from now, she will come to me and say 'Daddy, where
were you when they took freedom of the press away from the Internet?'"
--Mike Godwin, Electronic Frontier Foundation

Quick hints

• [CRITICAL] ANts is IN BETA TESTING... before running the client BE SURE TO HAVE THE LATEST UPDATE OTHERWISE YOU WON'T CONNECT!
• [NEW] Internationalization system implemented! Please download the translator zip and help us translating ANts in your own language!
• NOTE: The only way to speed up the ANts connection system is to let the net grow. Only with a reasonable number of high speed peers (i.e. peers that handles up to 30 connections) properly configured (firewall, ip etc.) initial connection can be easy and fast. So don't care about connection speed by now... let your node run and it will find peers or they will find it! DON't ASK TOO MUCH TO A NET MADE UP OF 20/30 peers...
• NOTE: We decided to move the ANts network to the newest (and stablest) java release jre1.5 so please UPGRADE!
