 Well, My Primary HD just crashed so I had to do a full reboot, I was running an older version of Bearshare that had manageable 3rd party software.

I went to download it again but the  new version is laiden with crap,  I don't want it on my machine.  

I am seeking recommendations for a good P2P file sharing program,  I was running bearshare for a long time,  I hate limewire, and I've heard of numerous other file sharing programs.  

Basically I'm looking for the cleanest running P2p program that is relatively fast and has a good user base.

bearshare or limewire. Once you download the free version search for the premium version and download that.

Can I get the premium without paying by doing as you suggest, I really have grown accustomed to bearshare but the bundled software is totally phucks it up.

thanks,

yeah, once you download the premium one just uninstall the free version and get rid of the spyware and then install the premium one.

Bit torrent all the way for me.

As for specific bit torrent client, I use azureus or bitcomet.

Ares is the program I use,  I think I will try out bittorrent one of these days though, just to see what the fuss is all about

Got it done as you described, just replaced the .exe file with the one in the crack folder, seems to have worked great, thanks for the info.

I've found that the files go like this...



You never know what your gonna get. Seriously, i've gotten a lot of dirty files from there.

Bit Torrent is the way to go.

Why oh why didn't I take the blue pill??


I'd check out bittorrents.  You have to find a good site that hosts trackers for what you want to get.  tvtorrent.info is good for tvshows.  Torrentspy.com has a bunch of stuff.  Or you can use some google-fu and find stuff.  I use Azureus as a client and it works great.

Shareaza (for music, anyway).

How do you keep from getting passworded torrents that don't include the passwords?
