Thread: What is the best file sharing program???

I have no probs with Kazaalite.

Kazza Lite & WinMx

Bearshare

They offer a Free ad supported version and one you can pay for.

Kazaa is fine for mp3:s i guess, for anything bigger there is only one;

http://dcplusplus.sourceforge.net/

Its free and ad free and with no spy ware like kazaa got.

Do not get Kazaa or Kazaa lite. Get Limewire. Kazaa and Kazaa lite have a ton of corrupted files on there, whereas limewire asks you if you want to block them and then you don't get a million songs with a scratchy annoying sound.

GBC is right. Also Kazaalite is for computer savy people that know how to protect them selves from spyware, viruses, and other internet-assholes. Limewire is great, winamp is cool too. Kazaalite is good for adult video, but you must scan all files very carefully before you open them. If you are not good at dealing with internet-assholes sending shit your way then stay away from Kazalite.

...McAfee internet security takes care of everything. I wouldn't go online without it.

KLite is the best IMO.

That is what is on the PC I am using and it has done well. I recomend it highley.

Emule

I was not referring to actual viruses. I was talking about songs that have been messed up (I think by the music companies) to make this horrible sound and f' up your speakers. I don't think a security program would detect that but I don't really know

I know what you're talking about now...that nasty high pitched scrambled sound..McAfee won't help ya there. In my experience with downloading music I only get the scrambled crap if it is a newer album, I mostly download classic rock and usually don't have a problem.

Yep, the newer stuff, especially pop and hip hop is the worst. That's why I switched to Limewire. It prompted me once if I want to block corrupted files, and I've never gotten another since

Great Folks!! Thanks....

I swore by Kazaa and Winmx back in the day, but then Kazaa started sending you spyware with its program and if you didn't install it, it would not work. That was then. Today, Kazaa does not do that, but I got to hate them so much that I would not install it. Now, Emule I have heard it's pretty good. Also WinMx has been pretty good for me.
In reality if I want movies and larger files, even music, I go to the newsgroups and get them thru there.
What I am looking for is for a legit pay site like Limewire.
Once again, thanks folks for the information....

I don't pay for Limewire

i know what you are talking about GBC
thats why i made the switch to WINmx months ago

I think some of that shit actually DID screw up my speakers, they are really messed up now

What is this file sharing thing that you are all talking about?

I am not sure if you remember Napster. The same type of thing but paying for it. If you buy the Limewire Pro, it costs you a one time fee, but it's understood that if you pay for that once, you are no longer in the "wrong side of the law"....

Only one of my speakers now works and they are only a year old

Return them?

hi
It depends upon your network properties.. one which is good doesnt work well on other networks. I prefer three Imesh, Kazaa, Limewire.. try these three one by one, and see which one is yielding more search reasults and which one is downloading faster on your network.
the latest version of imesh Imesh 5 is very nice. Lime wire suited better to me.

I have had good times with limewire,emule and also imesh is another one that did really good for me.
