Which Gnutella clients for Windows you like most?

Who did you think was going to win this?
I bet you thought Shareaza? LOL

Shareaza wins hands down on all platforms. It is opensource so it is 100% free and it also uses the edonky2000 network giving you more peers to download from. Alot of files are on both networks.

errr, LimeWire IS more popular. - If you went to download.com, you would find that LimeWire (if you count the downloads for all plattforms not only windows) had more downloads last week than even Morpheus had (not counting the ~150,000 downloads a week LimeWire gets from macupdate.com).
And btw., the Shareaza forums are way more active than the LimeWire forums ever were.

You can't find it meaning "you don't have a clue where to look" or "you read 100k lines of code and you're sure it ain't there"? Do you want a link or something?


Simple, Gnutella queries don't contain any vendor information, if LimeWire receives a query from Morpheus it will never be able to tell it's really a Morpheus host that sent the query. If Morpheus however connects to a LimeWire node, the LimeWire node will (unless it's one of the older nodes) only return a "403 Freeloader" reply instead of sending the requested file.

The negative about sharing on more than one network at one time of course is the sacrifice in bandwidth & affect it has on other networks. There's at least one network where you can only downld as fast as you upload. Then if people are uplding from you one one or more networks, what happens to people on the other networks you're connected to? They suffer!!! They either can't connect or get incredibly slow downlds from you. That's why multi-network programs tend to not work so well whilst they allow multi-network connection at one time. On Gnutella, I'm sure most people would be aware how slow & unreliable Shareaza (Raza) can be. This also applies to the others such as morpheus & Gnucleus, etc. This is not an opinion, it is fact. If these programs only connected to one network at a time, then problem solved. (else dedicating a minimum of 5 KB/s per upload slot per network connected to at the time might work if there's the bandwidth to allow this.)

15 pounds? No Ultrapeer support, no SHA1 hashes and sounds like it is a beta...

Perhaps in a few months when his program is finished he can ask money for it.

My intention is NOT to 'hang it' on any other p2p app. despite the sounds of it. But there's obviously something wrong here. Shareaza is not the only app I've noticed do this, but also another. It's purely a statement I've made out of experience of using LW. I've never used S. or most of the others so I can't comment about their effectiveness (even be it apparently at the sake of other apps) ... I've only use 2 other p2p apps & they were all mac. So take my comments as suggested & not as a hang it reference. Oh what a mess of a post or 2. lol Maybe I should fix that anim after all lol I tried to combine 2 anims which is why it stuffed up ..oh what the..

Shareaza is no leech, while a client isn
