Gnucleus is a Gnutella and Gnutella2 client for Microsoft Windows, released under the GNU General Public License. The primary goals of the project are security and stability.

Design

The client is designed to be easy to use without reducing the number of options available. Gnucleus implements a number of features including ultrapeers (high capacity Gnutella nodes which aggregate child nodes to prevent low capacity nodes from creating network bottlenecks), multisource swarming downloads, partial-file sharing, SHA1 file hashing, Tiger tree hashing, proxy server support, as well as support for the Gnutella2 network.

The network core, now dubbed GnucDNA, has been separated from the main program and is being used by many other applications such as Morpheus.
