FileTopia is a free, Windows-based client and networking tool allowing users to organize files, text & voice recordings, chat, and instant messages. All communication is encrypted, using ciphers such as AES, Blowfish, and Idea. To protect the users identity, they are able to use a "bouncer", which is essentially a proxy, to keep their IP hidden from the internet. Filetopia also features message boards and buddy lists. Users can share globally, or in specific channels/chat rooms, or in "Trade Mode". It is not a centralized system, users must connect to multiple servers in order to find each other, but file transfers, etc. are conducted on a peer-to-peer basis.
