Acorns networking modules ( inculding the DCI4 stack ) work perfectly with all
freeware applications I could lay my hands on.�Except those that specifically
requested other stacks of course. ;-) I upgraded from using FreeNet to Acorns
stack yonks back now and havn't once regretted the change. Acorns stack is
actually the most stable one I have tried.
One thing to look out for though is that FreeNet seemed to have a nasty habbit
of unplugging all the networking modules so if you are having problems with
using Acorns stack then remember to rmreinit everything first and also to never
ever run FreeNet again. ;-)
