I haven't used a p2p more then once every couple months for quite some time... the only one I have installed though is limewire so I guess that one :S

I used to have kazaa installed but it was evil so I burnt it at the stake and replaced it. MOstly I stick to bit torrents now instead of p2p proggies

Personally, I use Ares (http://www.aresgalaxy.org).

It is a really stable free p2p program with hundreds of thousands of users and best of all, it's quick loading and has no adware/spyware/viruses with it.

I used to use Shareaza, but I couldn't deal with the number of dead or half-completed files it allowed. It once took me two hours to download a 5Kb text file with the tutorial on Run commands. I know that wasn't shareaza's fault, but rather the user group.

Most P2P applications have viruses, adware, spyware or malware packed with them. I've used just about every single program so I'll make a helpful list of programs and their safety levels.

Name: Bearshare (Full)
Web Address: http://www.bearshare.com/
Risk Level: High

Name: Bearshare (Lite)
Web Address: http://www.bearshare.com/lite/
Risk Level: Low

Name: Kazaa
Web Address: http://www.kazaa.com/
Risk Level: High

Name: Limewire
Web Address: http://www.limewire.com/
Risk Level: Low

Name: Morpheus
Web Address: http://www.morpheus.com/
Risk Level: Medium

Name: Shareaza
Web Address: http://shareaza.sourceforge.net/
Risk Level: Medium

Name: eMule
Web Address: http://www.emule-project.net/
Risk Level: Low

I recommend Bearshare Lite or Limewire.

I personally use Imesh. http://imesh.com it is mainly for music downloads, but the version 5.0 lets you download whatever is available.

I have used it to get quite a few things, but yeah. try it and you'll find it out for yourself.

The Risk Level is probably Medium, everything i have downloaded has been virus free, but i have heard people are getting viruses are from it.

Im currently using Limewire, it filters out many of the obvious bogus files really well. I remember when I was using Kazza, all the downloads would give me a really high pitched eerie sound. Im assuming RIAA is trying to fill up the kazza with bogus files so people would stray away from downloading files. But since I found limewire, I have been having great results for my search for things. I have yet to find a file that I didnt keep because it was currupted or a bad file at the worst.

Like a lot of people, I used a lot of P2P software. Basically, I've tried them all except for the Spyware-infested ones. I even used Morpheus and Kazaa, despite their enormous amount of Adware. And my personal favourite has been Shareaza since the first time I used it.

It basically has everything you could EVER wish for in a P2P program. It connects to the two best networks (i.e. Gnutella2 and eDonkey), it support BitTorrent downloads, it handles most every other extension for P2P downloading (e.g. Azuerus Links, Magnet Links, etc.)

It's a little hard to configure for novices, but the help files available on the Website make it a breeze to set up everything.

I don't use P2P programs anymore, my computer is always getting the same virus on it whenever I use one.

The first one I used was Kazaa, and that had a lot of bugs and imcomplete and/or missing files. Then I used Limewire, which worked pretty well although I can't remember why I stopped using it.

After that I started to use Morpheus which offered quite high speed downloads but also tends to send you viruses.

Usenet is not free... Only a few ISP gives free access to it.
ISPs here in denmark (and the most of EU) dosent give free accsess to it.

So what do you do... Download a free P2P program ofcourse.

There is Cabos P2P its not fast but uses 4 gnutella engines.
Its really an lightweight prog. And complete without malware.
Its opensourse and compleatly free.

Ares is one of the good ones if you ask me.

Bearshare dosent use so much CPU use than limewire...
But I dosent really know it to speak about it.

I had tryed Limewire basic/pro and think its dosent find alot of what I'm searching for, however it finds alot of small (under 2 mb)fake files that dosent have something with my search to do or even worse can be malware.

Programs like Kazaa and Morpheus sucks both... Thats it
And remember to have an good antivirus BEFORE downloading an P2P!

Well people, don't argue too much about the issue.
The most important thing about p2p program is that it must be free and fast.
That's it, no more questions!
And the only p2p client that has this feature is "FROSTWIRE".

I'm considering downloading shareza on my new computer but don't want any viruses or spyware or legal problems any suggestions

Christine, legal or not relies on you.
If you paid for a software, it's legal to download it from anywhere by all means.
If you didn't give money to the guy who created the software, using shareza in order to downlad it is illegal.

Now, concerning the virus and spiwares, this fully depends from your provider. Some servers offer pirated software, and inside the software you get a lot of spywares or sometime viruses. This is also part of the anti-piracy war.
So, the problem is not inside shareza, the problem is which software you download from where.
