Emule is just another filesharing program that connects to the same network Edonkey does. It also connects to the Kad network which is a fairly new network created by eMule. No, its nothing realted to the shows in itjuana AFAIK. Its simply called Emule because a mule is a crossbread of a hourse and a donkey. Homepage of Emule is http://www.emule-project.net You can find more information about eMule there. Personally, I choose Emule over Edonkey but thats my choice.

I would like to say that I prefer Edonkey, but unfortunately I'm using Amule (a Linux Emule client) right now.

The problem that Emule created at one point was that it was destroying the Edonkey network by being too aggressive in its attempts to get the highest points in the queues. Often this was causing "bogging" down on the server side.

I'm hoping that this has been resovled. Does anyone know?

I third that one. Emule Plus rocks, except there is no connection wizard, you have to enter connection settings manually.

I use the new version for rare content (radio broadcast, audiobooks, old tv shows). Its in the 1.2.1 stage. If I want to download some popular stuff, I just use Overnet 0.52.
