I don't use any of these, but happend to be researching p2p technologies and read this regarding eDonkey:

"Latest versions (1.4.3+) of eDonkey all contain adware, which can not be opted out of, even with a "Pro" install."

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_BitTorrent_software#fn_8

Def

That's why you use eMule instead, it connects to the same network and is clean.

Hmm, my winmx does not work anymore. http://www.winmx.com/   Looks dead to me.
You're right about it having no spyware.

WinMX has been officially dead for a while now, there are patches to install which change the servers that it uses so people can still use it.

As far as I know WinMX was free, wasn't it? o.O

I've been using LimeWire now for a couple weeks or so, and I find it fairly adequate.  I'd say it's pretty good.

www.frostwire.com

While I did find the song I was looking for, Frostwire uses java which bogs my cpu down at 100% the whole time Frostwire is loaded. Thats Garbage.

Yeah, that's the one downside I saw with frostwire too. Let us know if you find something better.

[Here's some links

http://www.winmxworld.com/

http://www.vladd44.com/mx/peercaches.php
http://www.winmxisback.com/

Can't tell you how well they work, never used them or WinMX.

Thanks Solo. I might re-install WinMX if frostwire gives me trouble and give the patches a try. Too bad it had to die like it did.

www.gnucleus.com

it is the best G2/Gnutella network client, but the support has died for it, and it has started to stop connecting on some pc's due to unknown reasons.  especially on XP.  it doesnt eat memory and allows you to search as made nodes as you wish, 100,000+ if you like, with no lag.  frostwire is only good because its based on limewire, but removes the restrictions of files and searching a bit.  yes, java does eat cpu, but my 500Mhz pc runs it fine with no serioius lag, sure you shouldn't keep it loaded except to get files, not leave it on to share them.
