Yes im bored and feel like using p2p, anyone know any good programs that don't load a bunch of shit on your computer with ads and aol shit? AND actually let you download what you want most of the time?

www.winmx.com

No spyware, no shit, etc.
A good alternative to dead audiogalaxy.

trouble is u have to wait in a cue in winmx for most files, that sux. Get kazaalite its a non-spyware/adware version of kazaa, its very good for videos/apps/music, but anything else isnt worth tryin cuz it'll prob be fake

I've always been able to find anything I want on edonkey, and 99% of the time I have it on the same day no matter how large it is. I can never find anything other than music on winmx and kazaa. Edonkey installs spyware, but adaware has no problem removing it, and it still works afterwards.

i agree with Stezo, kazaalite is the best 1 to get...however kazaalite is ALSO memory intensive(it said so when i ran sisoft sandra).....but it doesn't have any spyware and its fast!

edonkey is the best, uve just gotta update the server lists every few weeks. but u get good speeds and plenty of stuff to download. not good for mp3s though.

seeing how winmx is the first p2p program that i've ran into that actually finds what i want, and i can acutally DOWNLOAD what i want, its a thumbs up;) i've gone through like 5 other programs so far;) i'll give edonkey another lookie just because:)

Grokster is quite good, and limewire is also compitent. If you visit WWW.PCWORLD.COM.AU, there is a review for most of the popular file sharing networks:)

Josep, I told you that winmx is the best :)
Kazaa can't find what I need, too. At all.
And edonkey doesn't work at all (it trying to connect to all it's servers, and can't. Servers are dying often, too. So you shuld upgrade their list often, and this sucks)
Winmx is the simpliest and fastest.
If queue - just try another same file.

u can get the autoupdater, meaning less effort updating server lists (which is like no effort at all).

All p2p networks are shit if your stuck on a 56k and you try to download anything bigger than about 30megs.

hehe, poor rpglover;) No, its just pointless with p2p;) p2p is only good for a few selected mp3s that you want to download and then maybe a few short clips from tv shows, but thats about it;)
