Are you talking about a particular Gnutella client, or the network in general? I don't see how the Gnutella network can be any more or less secure than any other P2P system; it's really more of a protocol that individual clients can implement well or not-so-well.
I use mutella, which was "inspired by" gnut, but is much better and has a hella-cool web remote GUI, so if I was the kind of person who downloaded music and posted to internet BBSes while at work, I could theoretically do that without worrying about my employer's silly firewall.
But I assume you're wanting a Windows client, so I'd look into LimeWire and Bearshare, two of the more popular Gnutella clients. As far as content, I've never had too much of a problem finding what I was looking for, but sometimes that means letting a search run for hours before someone shows up with what I want.
