Application to search for files on networks

I need software built to scour certain networks and locate particular files on those networks. I need this application to run in the background and to accept a combination of keywords and titles to look for, such as: [url removed, login to view] or [url removed, login to view] The user would then click ‘go’ and the app would search specific networks for that file. The networks that this software needs to search are the Gnutella network, KDX network, Carracho network, Hotline network and the Usenet network. In a perfect world, I would like for this application to either retrieve an IP address of the computer holding the file or an address of the ISP with the computer holding the file or both. Both preferably. It needs to have some way of identifying the holder of the software. When the app locates the file, a sound and/or box would pop-up detailing specific information as to the location of the file. The application also needs to look good as in graphically looking good. It needs some color with buttons and scrollbars, etc. This application has to work on both the Mac and PC, which I understand may constitute two different versions. This is NOT a request for a software application to download files. It is a request for a software application to only LOCATE files and identify a source for the location.

Software needs to be graphically pleasing,i.e., colorful and fun. Software needs to run on both Mac and PC computers. Software must include some form of location technology for finding files. It is a definite that it has to locate the software somehow; whether by IP address or by ISP or other means.
