hey i was just interested in getting opinions from people on the board here what they think of limewire as oppose to kazaa lite or any other filesharing program as i'm thinking of switching over. So just post your thoughts

thx

LimeWire has much less fake files to download compared to Kazaa Lite. LimeWire is also adware/spyware free and is one of the best file sharing programs available. I switch to LimeWire awhile back and I love it. I just kept getting fake files with Kazaa Lite. I hardly get fakes on LimeWire.

Good Luck :D

Then what would you say is best to use? I don't think there is anything better to use than LimeWire or BitComet. :unsure:

Limewire is better than Kazaa Lite because KL is just nothing but fake files now.



Posted by: nat

true it seems that way but i tried using limewire and it seems that their search function is slightly slower than KL's and i keep getting "need more sources" does that happen to anyone else all the time?

@Peerzy
cos private FTP's are just that easy to find now then huh? seriously how do people find them i feel like once again i'm being kept out of the loop.

You do not find then, they find you, hench why they are private, you are kept out of a loop for a reason, for the secruity of other members because chances are you'll go blagging to your mate who tells this guy he knows and so on.

If they think you are worthy or have something decent to offer, they'll contact you.

I would say that since Limewire has always been using the gnutella network (I could be wrong, but this is what i thought) it ranks easily above any of the Kazza clients. Here's another question though: Limewire isn't the only gnutella client out there. How does it rate in comparison to other clients like Bearshare and what not.

NOTE: I haven't looked into the client for the gnutella networks in a long time since when I was using them they weren't able to actually download what I was looking for, so Bearshare may not be out there and Limewire may not be using gnutella anymore. In those cases I apologize for the incorrect info.

i would have to say that there does actually seem to be alot of fakes on limewire. Of course you can usually tell by looking at the size of the file but still there seems to be alot of those ipod ads being the fake files. Distributer?
