 Audio Galaxy |
I was able to get this installed today, and though at first I did not like it, after using it some (500megs Downloaded) I really like it. It installs a small Client program on your computer and you do the searches from their web page. The search list will even show you which track you already have so you don't duplicate a download (If it is in your shared Directory). This Version (0.608) is still in Beta testing but seem very nice. I can't wait till an upgrade. The install Package comes with the option to install Bonzi Buddy, Gator and a Webcelerator. although I did not install any of these. I am looking to see about SpyWare in this program now. | No SpyWare can be found with this program | ***** |
 Bad Blue |
A True Peer-To-Peer. You must have the IP address of another BadBlue user it does not share over a network. It is HTML based. Good program for friends! | no Spyware I could find | *** |
 Bear Share |
I like Bearshare it has a good search feature and keeps pretty good stats on which files of yours show in other searches, which ones have been requested, and which ones were uploaded. Also shows a running list of all incoming searches from other users, a good way to find other files is to see what other people are looking for. | Includes SpyWare | **** |

| Version 5.0 Claims No Spyware, No Trojans and No Popups. Free Download. Pay to remove ads from browser. I tried to use this one but it kept shutting down on me. My Spybot Search and Destroy program detected alot of stuff on installing. I denied changes and it still installed although it did not stay running. | Includes SpyWare | * | |
| This is a sister program to Morpheous | Includes SpyWare | ***** | |
 Lime Wire |
Lime Wire was similar to Swap Nut, but with more refined edges. In fact it is better than Swap Nut WAS!It put Swap Nut out of business. Current version is 3.4 | **** | |

Version 3.53 is out now. Seems like a good program. A little slow getting started for the first timer in its Libary building phase. If you are sharing alot of files (More than 5000 it could take awhile). Pretty good download speeds. only one down and one upload at a time although you can put many files in your queue. | No SpyWare. | **** |
