In the days before i had firefox and had figured out how to configure mediaplayer, those licence required movies just buried me in spyware. Much wiser now.

WinMX - Good, for broadband connections. Consists of no spyware, adware or anything of that nature.

iMesh - Definitely good.. other than the fact of the loads of adware and spyware.

Gnutella (anything) - I've read articles of the software containing and passing anything and everything.

Kazaa - Other than the virii, and from what I've been told, adware.. it's supposedly good.

Kazaa Lite - Supposedly removed the virii; which I highly doubt.

BearShare - I've heard also has adware and spyware.

The other programs, such as Ares.. I haven't heard anything of. I mainly use(d) WinMX.

The ultimate clients:

BitComet (for torrent files): www.bitcomet.com
Ares (good for single files): www.ares.com (get the lite edition).

You'll be happy, I promise.

Also, since downloading shit is dangerous make sure you have an almost invincible system, I recommend 3 free programs that keep your computer squeaky clean:

Avast Antivirus (Free for home users, you just need to register).
Spybot
Ad-aware

You can get them at www.snapfiles.com

Later, hope it helps.

Goodpost Banana........

I stopped using pp2 I tried almost all of them and my system was always active in the background. I have Nortons, Spybot, crapcleaner, adaware, Spydoc etc, and hate all these pp2 progrmammes saying they dont have spyware in them and they do. Unless I can get a cast iron clad agreement from software I wont use it.

I remember dl/d one programme and took me weeks to find some software to remove the registry changes.

I would rather buy a programme now than think I get something free. Jusy my pref

I know what you mean wine, it sucks to have a slowass system with a bunch of crap running in the background, i had that problem before and i investigated and tried many optiones, finally i settled on those and formatted my computer, now im a happy fast running computer user
but yes, buying programs is usually a better option, if you have the money that is hehe...

Also stopped using p2p. Bittorrent and Kazaa Resurrection were probably the best of the bunch.

odd, I tried out ares and thought it was great. It worked the first day, but after that it wont connect for me, and after I close it and try to reopen it, it doesnt want to open. I guess I am stuck with WinMX.
