which do u think is the fastest?
1. bt
2. irc
3. klite
4. dc++
5. other stuff

i personally think bt and irc are in the lead. mainly cuz i got 270 something kb/s last nite on irc! :wacko: klite used to be fast. but now it's slow, even with kanat running. but i wasn't dling the most popular files either. so... yea.

well, you can get content (games, movies, videos, audio etc) on newsgroups generally before you can get it anywhere else

it depends what you want to get...if you can&#39;t find anything you want on there, you can request for someone to post it and you should get it posted pretty quickly

i have done it all except newsgroup, but for the fastest it has to be irc or k-lite,, and the reason why i havent tried newsgroup is ecause its kind of hard but if somebody will be nice to show me how to set this darn thing up :D

is there a server address shown?

something along the lines of news.yahoo.com?

if you can find a server address, then all you need to do is plug that server address into a newsreader (like newsbin pro)
