That's a pretty broad question. What kind of stuff do you download, and how much do you know about filesharing?
see we have professionals here, having 10 years of experience in helping with file sharing........:whistlingQuote:

WinMX is still alive... sort of. "Life support" would be a more accurate description, but hey, it may work for some.Quote:

u torrent 1.6.1 is the best torrent.
Napster was great! Also Kazaa but I lost interest in it once the amount of malware on it got uncontrollable
Too bad I hadn't discovered Oink's Palace in working years!!
There's What.cd now, which has 5-6 times more torrents than OiNK had back in the day, and can easily be joined through the IRC interview if you're willing to "study" a bit. Besides the nostalgia, I see no reason to regret not having been a member. :unsure:Quote:

Even more than the newer builds?Quote:

My mistake. I was referring my post to uTorrent in general, not some specific version of it.Quote:

P.S. 2.2 must be the most popular atm.
Limewire.
uTorrent for torrents
jDown for RS, MU, etc.............
ApexDC++ for the DC++ dowloaders
My favorite among many Audiogalax
utorrent.
Easy and safe...
It's as safe as the torrents you download. And that'd be disregarding all the "stats" backlinks you can find in the executable.Quote:
