I use limewire pro and find it to be the best of the file sharing programmes, of course that's my personal opinion.

I made my sister a pc so her son could use the internet.. she has since had the pc for just over a week.. they downloaded limewire. now it has viruses they cant use msn because it basikly just wont work.. and the computer is full of spyware..

Dont get me wrong limewire is good but the users etc that put viruses on are total idiots.. my nephew it 11 years old and now they have recked his pc..

[snoopy89]

[earwig999]

Most of the people that get caught and susequently billed use Limewire. Leech from it, do not share any big folders full of stuff or it could be you with the big bill next time.

i use morpheus. had it fo a while n no problems yet. searches through a number of p2p programs including limewire n kazaa

 

[capcomind]

bearshare pro does the trick for me, they all seem to use the same backbone its just the gui that differs. Just make sure that your av scanner is up to date and it may be prudent to renew your ip address manually every couple of days...........

i use limewire pro and think its great but always check everything you download before opening it

I still miss audiogalaxy. Used filetopia for a long time but now I only tend to download the odd track and use winmx for that.

I agree with scott that it's wise to check anything you download before opening it - and to run a spyware check if you've installed a new programme>

main clients

1&4 eMule
1&4 Overnet*

2 Kazaa Lite
2 Kazaa*
2 iMesh*
2 Grokster*

3 BearShare *
3 LimeWire
3 Morpheus

5 Piolet
5 Blubster

6 Filetopia

these are main clients, there are lots of others like sharezaa which connect to more than one network, however the success of these on other clients on other networks is limited for instance versions of emule block certain clients and names from connecting to them unless they are valid emule/edonkey etc clients.

then there is BitTorrent, which is very widely used but is not a network in the same sense as the others.... and DC/irc and newsgroups

er if i were you... eMule or BitTorrent and you will want something like protowall to run with ANY p2p app.

Don't really like limewire myself so i use BT & DC++ for getting royalty free wav files of course imp: .
