P2P File Sharing

i’m using windows vista and i need a program where i can download clips, movies, and videos easily.

Limewire

Hey gearjammer thumbs down on you. These programs are not only used for music damn ignorant fool. I have a gig of personal writeups off p2ps in subjects that I study. FYI !!!!!!!

Bit torrent files are the BEST to use these days. The slow old way is a P2P Proggie. Don’t use Lime Wire, Kazzam, Grokster ETC. As they are FULL of Spy-ware. I suggest you use BitLord. And then find torrent web sights to find torrents to download what you are looking for. If you are heart set then use kazaa lite for a P2P program. it will take some looking but it is still out there on the net. I used it about a week ago and there were over 4 million people useing it still. BUT MAKE SURE YOU USE KAZAA-LITE! Not kazaa or Kazamm or ANY of that other Crap out there. Or you will be infected with a ton of addware and Spyware!

torrents are good cause you can download many things, when some p2p programs would never find. downloading torrents is great, there arent any annoying ads, no spywares that would track which sites you are visiting, nothing. only pure downloading :]

the only problem about torrents is when there arent any seeders, so then you cant download. otherwise the speed is excellent.

Which program works the fastest & with less viruses?
I will only use it for videos and music download

Just tell me which one you think is the best and why.PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Utorrent 1.8.3 is way better than limewire?
LimeWire is old school and loaded with bugs!
Utorrent is very lite on the ram and you can download any torrent You like!

I had Kazaa lite in the past but friends are recommending Limewire, Bearshare, Bit Torrent, Shareaza, etc…

I want:
A large file base to pull from
Fastest downloads
Fewest adds
Easiest interface
Ability to handle large files
Fewest imposter files
Least spyware/virus
Music, images, movies, etc…

Limewire. Its the best.

I want a simple p2p file sharing software not with a lot of useless features what one should I download or what one do you use

Utorrent.It’s easy to use.

There are several that are good and best of all free!

1) eDonkey / Overnet
http://www.zeropaid.com/edonkey/
eDonkey/Overnet is a state-of-the-art P2P file sharing software system. Especially popular in Europe, the two P2P networks eDonkey and Overnet combined support a large base of users and files. The eDonkey P2P client connects to both networks; the Overnet client is being merged into future releases of eDonkey. eDonkey runs on Windows, Linux and Macintosh computers. The free version of eDonkey contains embedded advertising but none of the dreaded "spyware" found in some free file sharing software.

2) Shareaza
http://www.shareaza.com/
Shareaza is an up-and-coming P2P file sharing program. This client offers an extremely powerful search engine capable of connecting to multiple popular P2P networks including eDonkey, BitTorrent and Gnutella. Shareaza file sharing software includes intelligence for detecting fake and/or corrupted files. The free Shareaza download also contains no ads or spyware. As the installed base of Shareaza client users grows, expect Shareaza to become an even better P2P file sharing program.

3) WinMX
http://www.zeropaid.com/winmx/
WinMX offers a large P2P file sharing network and a feature-rich client program that has evolved over years of development. True, WinMX has a reputation for being complex and more difficult to use than some alternatives. However, WinMX also provides power to users in managing their downloads, and it offers a wide selection of music (MP3) files. Some WinMX users report waiting in long queues to download popular files. WinMX software runs only on the Windows family of operating systems.

4) BitTorrent
http://www.bittorrent.com/
BitTorrent is another free P2P software application. It has attracted a loyal following among those interested in sharing movies and television programs. The offical BitTorrent P2P client generally does not support bandwidth throttling, meaning that it will tend to monopolize a network connection and not allow surfing the Internet or otherwise utilizing the network while files are being downloaded or uploaded. A freely-available alternative BitTorrent client overcomes this limitation.

5) Limewire
http://www.limewire.com/english/content/home.shtml
The Limewire P2P file sharing program connects to the Gnutella P2P network. Limewire client software is widely recognized for its clean user interface that does not contain adware. Sometimes billed as the "fastest file sharing program," Limewire claims to offer relatively good search and download performance. Free Limewire software downloads are available for Windows, Linux and Macintosh operating systems. Limewire Pro pay clients also exist.

6) eMule
http://emule.org/
The eMule project started with the goal of building an improved free eDonkey client. eMule has achieved a large user base, connecting both to the eDonkey p2p file sharing network and a few others. It contains no advertising, and its software base is well-maintained by an open source development team. The chief limitation of eMule’s P2P file sharing program is its speed: eMule typically performs downloading much slower than other P2P clients.

7) Ares
http://aresgalaxy.sourceforge.net/
Ares is a full-featured free P2P network with its own file sharing programs including Ares Galaxy. Ares clients support decentralized music and other file sharing and include a built-in chat service. Ares strives to offer the simplicity of Kazaa clients with no adware and fast connection times.

BearShare
http://www.bearshare.com/
The BearShare P2P file sharing program is a popular free software client for the Gnutella P2P network. Both free and pay downloads of BearShare file sharing programs exist.

i used to download a lot of shit in college, but i haven’t done so in years, so now i’m out of the technology loop. i have heard of limewire, bittorrent, frostwire or something, and a few others, however each time i have downloaded and installed these programs i search for a file in the search box, and instead of populating a list that you can download from in one click like the old school p2p’s, now it just takes me to a website. how do the torrents work? wtf is a torrent anyways? and is the RIAA still cracking down on p2p downloaders?

i think you don’t know that’s piracy in this days, you are free to look every were, but don’t come to a place like this ask how to make illegal stuff. next time i report you as an abuser.
