I use to use Kazaa, and before that used WinMX and the "original" Napster. The verison of Kazaa I use to use was some special platinum/gold/or whatever version that didn't have any spyware or the like.

I don't use any file sharing software anymore, I get my music off Napster or just buy the CD, and pretty much any software you would want to download can be found somewhere on the internet.

eMule. Best one on the net, used to use KazaaLite, a ripped program that a hacker-savvy friend of mine created. It could access Kazaa's servers without the spyware.

man jakjr I end up doing that all the time
It's nice knowing I'm not the only one who does it

I don't share/download files at all. Too high of a risk of viruses

Default RE: P2P File sharing.What do you use?

music off limewire is virus free for me but I scan all the files I download with antivirus. Kazaa was full of viruses. I never got a single problem with imesh, its a pretty good one and kiwi alpha is great it just doesnt have a built in media player so you play everything through windows media player

morpheus was the first one i ever used it was ok.

Oh well. Even my XP isnt paid for. But dont YOU feel special cuz "I don't download ANYTHING illegally"?

All i read about everywhere else is "lime wire this" and "lime wire that". Absolutely hate that program. Nothing but second hand quality songs (most are 128K bps or worse) and programs.

itunes isnt illegal, i have itunes, i just dont buy songs off of it.... I look at it this way, Ipod= $300.00, holds 20,000 songs, songs cost .99 cents, 20,000 x .99 = $20,100.00 (including the ipod) for a completely full ipod, I can buy a new car for the cost of a music player full of songs, which would you rather do??
