Is DarkNet still in development? I was going to purchase it but not if it's dead-in-the-water.

The product page insinuates there will be another release
-"64 bit compatibility (not included yet, but on its way. This update includes the necessary changes to make this possible)."

"but on its way" <---still being worked!?

it was last updated in 2011, to a version 2.0.1 I would say get it, and get used to it before it even updates...

It is not under active development at the moment.

I will fix any bugs that people find, so you can be sure it is a solid product but additional features will be slow. Also I will answer any questions from users via email or on the forums.

As for 64 bit, this is something only .NET or C++ users would benefit from; drop me an email if you need this feature and I should be able to get it done over Christmas.

I've been using DarkNet for a while now and it is, by far, the easiest and nicest network library I have ever used. It is deffinantly not dead and if you're worried if it hasn't been undated for a while, it is still a powerhouse of usefulness.

Price tag seems high, but when you get it you'll understand why its a killer deal.

Ventures of the worlds around us are limited only by our imagination.
