anyone else using exeem? it's pretty cool and it's based off of bittorrent technology. i highly recommend it, which doesn't really mean much, but i think everyone should at least check it out. http://exeem.com
btw, if you don't know what the hell i'm talking about, exeem is a p2p program like kazaa, limewire, bearshare, etc... but it's based off of bittorrent so it kicks ass. check it out. http://exeem.com
its been in beta for about...10years now :dry:
so? it still rules. i'm using it right now to download a movie and i'm getting great speeds. and i didn't have any trouble finding the file i wanted either, it came right up as soon as i searched.Quote:

Blaming your router and bad port configuration on programs is not good, even if it is Exeem.
What about versions of Exeem with Adware removed?
Are they OK?
ok is a reletive term. it works, it seems to suffer from too many leechers that don't seed what they download til they reach 1:1 ratio and people that release and don't hang around til they're well seeded though
i thought is was adware free....Quote:

you thought wrong
it installs a IE BHO and the "simple banner ads" in exeem, theyre not just simple banner ads, they are 2 full blown web pages loading in the little boxes.
They're full of shockwave flash, cookies, JavaScripts, redirects, and iframes
i thought a "simple banner ad" was suppose to an image, and not webpages full of scripts, tracking cookies, redirects and possible exploits
fortunately theyre hosted by cydoor, so no worries.
i use BIT eXeem though, it's a cleaned version
If you go to their main site, you'll read quite clearly that, though exeem is 'freeware' it is supported by advertising(meaning loaded with adware/spyware), very much like limewire was when first released. Scary to think that they might shove bonzi buddy into exeem one day.

I think they meant willingly installing adware, not ad-aware ( i hope ) :blink:Quote:

Exeem was meant to be the best of bt and kazaa, it managed neither, bt and kazaa are both still better and I can't see that changing for a long time. :(
Why not just use Clean exeem?
don't use it it's full of spyware
Yeah, that's the one...i'm an idiot :mushy:Quote:

And when i'm downloading, it gives me crap for stats. I like to look at all the peers/seeders i'm connected to because i like to know how many countries i'm connected to
