I'm lost. I don't know what P2P software to get anymore... Sad

WinMX refuses to connect pretty much anywhere and 95% of my transfer list is forever red.

KaZaA is an absolute fucking RAM whore that prevents me from doing anything else quickly on the computer.

eDonkey is a piece of shit, period.

Shareaza isn't capable of finding a search result if it came up and bit it in the ass.

What now?...

Bittorrent is nice, you just have to find sites with the torrent files you want. Also, I just downloaded the newest WinMX beta. It worked pretty well for me in my 10 minute test. You might wanna give it a try.

BT is probably the way a lot of things will switch over to, especially with larger files and collections. If you can find the torrent link, you'll be all set. For smaller stuff, I tend to run combinations of other sharing programs to get what I'd like to have.

Yeah, but what about classic P2P? BitTorrent to me is just some fancy downloader that uses alternate methods to fetch the file. I want something with at least a search box and a transfer window!

I tried Shareaza already and it has the annoying ability to inexplicably kill my entire Internet connection within 5 minutes.

Hmm... for that, have you tried K-Lite? I don't know if it will be any better on the ram hogging, but it works okay for me...

I actually don't use any P2P software. But if I did, it would be WinMX or Kazaa

I use E-mule(modified Edonkey client) and BT(I use the ABC client). Emule is a good source but can take some time to complete even small items is at all. I have used WinMX some but with not enough for a opinion. I cannot stop using BT, I have filled 450GB and still going Neutral Most things I find on BT but they do need a little bit of searching.
