Go back to school Kenwood.

None of the P-to-P applications are illegal. The material, if you choose to download it, is illegally obtained if it is copyrighted. If you download a song or movie that is copyrighted, you are committing a crime, and might be served a court order from the IRAA.

With that being said, I burn the shit out of limewire, I love it. If you want a more secure downloading program that doesn;t have as much stuff, but protects you from the RIAA PM me or BigDyl, and we will give you the link.

Torrents are the best way in my opinion...

Theres torrentpond.com and typhoon that allows you to search several engines at once so you get more hits on stuff you're looking for.

 

[mike456]

is it true that they run programs on your computer, even when you think that it is closed, causing your computer to run slower?

Never ever take amy advice from a dropout.

 

[mike456]

one more question is there any websites you can download from, like so you dont have to download the program onto your computer?

 

[maniclion]

is it true that they run programs on your computer, even when you think that it is closed, causing your computer to run slower?

Yes, they trick non tech savvy folks because when you click the x in the top right corner, as you would with any program, it just hides it in the tool bar while it keeps running. To really close it you have to click file and then shut down or close whatever the program is, and make sure it's not in the tasks by hitting control alt delete and checking the processes running...

I already knew that, so if it is closed it doesnt run any other shit on your computer? So what are they gaining if it is a free program to the people, they have absolutely no gain? that sounds pretty fishy...

 

[mike456]

too good to be true

 

[MACCA]

Ive always used limewire for music and music videos and havn't had any problems.

[fletcher6490]

Download azeurus and use the torrent sites listed above. My personal favorite is www.torrentspy.com

 

[BigDyl]

Ghey, you shouldn't give out trade secrets to noobs.



Anyways, most of you noobs don't know about ircd's either.

[kenwood]

soo mike what did u use?

 

[Little Wing]

if you install the new opera browser you can download torrents from any site with it n only seed what you want. i use limewire too if i want music in a hurry.

 

[mike456]

sorry to bump this, but I still didn't choose a program (Kelju, the one you gave me didn't work, I sent you a couple of PMs)

Two questions:
1. If you download one of these programs, and then remove it, will it be like you never downloded it? because my sister downloaded bearshare, and those fuckers tried to change my browser, I don't know what else they did, but I removed the program.

2. I was looking at the limewire website, and it ask you if you will download copyrighted files, when you dowload it does it tell you wich files are copyrighted and wich ones are not?

thanks
