    To each there own , but I prefer the simplicity of Kazaa. Like AG just click on it and forget it. Yesterday it hit 2.11 million online at the same time, it was downloading faster than I could punch them in. At this moment I'm downloading 2 files (350mg each) and browsing etc. If your worried about spyware or the cydoor.dll ( I have the patch for this) see this thread. http://www.thisboardrocks.com/forum/showthread.php?s=&threadid=8087

    I have dsl thru Verizon in Va. no problems here, cheaper, browsing speed the same, downloading and uploading a little slower but it also helped when I added Windows Network Booster then went to dsl reports and did a work up on my mtu and tcp setup.
     
  4. the jokers on Kazaa like to rename files so that you think it's one thing, but it's really something else. Oh yeah, and I've gotten a couple infected files from them as well. Bleah.

    WinMX is becoming too much like Hotwire. Everybody is into "trade mode" where they kick you off their queue if you don't have something they want in return. It's just too easy to be selfish. Sharing program my ass. It's also kinda slow with all the p2p traffic... or at least, it was for me.

    It's probably fine for music, but big files (like, say, Warcraft 3) just are impossible to get, I find.

    Bump for DSL as well

    Just hooked up DSL HomePortal and have 2 PC's networked together, both humming along at 14.7mbps of download power.

    I heard that networking your pc's will increase the speed, guess thats true.

    I installed and when I tried to open it, I got an error msg that said " A required .DLL file, MSVBVM60.DLL, was not found." :confused:

    Ok, I'm a dumbass. I just installed Kazaa and it had nothing about music files. I have seen people spell it several ways- what is the proper spelling and why can't a man with above average intellect figure the MF OUT?
