As far as i know shareaza and emule dont support overnet.

Edonkey2000 i dont know?

The only client i know is the overnet client itself http://www.overnet.com/download.html

Not a real fan of it thou.

emule downloads from the ed2k network (used by edonkey), shareaza downloads from the ed2k network, bittorent network, and gnutella network (and some more i think, never used it). Overnet network is only accessable through overnet itself or through MLDonkey. MLDonkey is like shareaza where it can access the emule and overnet network but its a bain to ed2k network.

I dont think edonkey files are compatible with shareaza. So finish the edonkey files off, then switch to shareaza. But be aware, shareaza uses a different format to edonkey, emule, and i think overnet. So if you want to finish downloads you need to do so with Shareaza. Official emule can convert edonkey files to compatible emule files.

actually if ur using an older edonkey version that doesnt include the horde system, you can transfer the dl and finish it with shareaza but i dont know it doesnt work the other way

Shareaza can import partial eMule downloads.
