I know running 2 different P2Ps is not recommended. Is the same true for running a P2P (Shareaza) and a bittorrent client (Azureus?) I know azureus uses a lot of memory so it may make my PC slow, but will the DLoading be ok?

p2p refers to peer-to-peer, which bittorent is as well. its just another p2p program. The results would be determined on your bandwidth usage, and quite honestly, I wouldn't recommend it.
you can run 2 p2p programs @ the same time as long as both dont use the same port.
well I had to configure my azureus client to use another port so I could use ET's tracker, and I've never messed w/ the port set-up for Shareaza (which should be the default setting) so there should be no problem then right?
I have done this a few times..you shouldn't have any problems as long as you have enough RAM.
Seems to be working alright. Thanks dudes:)

It depends on the combo. of which p2p prog's you're trying to run and your computer. I've had ABC, emuleplus and Ares all going at the same time before quite a few times with good speeds on all 3 and very little lag from my comp .

If you are losing your upload running multiple programs, you are going to have a very hard time with BT on a private tracker, where you must have a decent upload ratio to keep your account.
