Best P2P program?

[Jack_Dawson]

I normally use Gnucleus, but where things used to d/l, now it says "pending" all the time.

Is there a better P2P program that won't infest my computer w/ spyware, adware, etc.?

Thx

7. No way.

Just check the comments on individual files before DLing, but the worst problems I've encountered were partial songs.

6. Not that I've found.

I run my spyware finder things once a week.

8. Actually, Limewire might be sketchy...

"Limewire (The most current version of Limewire is reported to include spyware. LimeWire 4.9.28 is clean. Older and newer version may not be.)"

That's good news. I suppose I should look at which version I have.

4. I use Bitcomet as my bittorrent client...

And Soulseek as my other P2P client.

13. Nevermind about P2P try usenet and see what you think.

Usenet. You'll wonder why you ever wasted your time elsewhere.

Usenet is a part of the Internet. It is a part of the Internet that a lot of people don't know about and don't know how to use. Usenet is a bit like a giant message board, with topics about everything under the sun - from fishing to particle physics, from saxophones to World War 2... and you guessed it - music!
