Best P2P?
Good Morning!

Simple question for IT literates... What's the best P2P software for a novice like myself?

Thanks

I have never had spyware issues with Ares. However, I have never heard of emule. I will have to try it out.

2. You just need to learn by doing
Really, don't muck around with second-best, go straight for emule and torrents. Emule is a p2p client that is very effective but when you want to go for speed, go for bit torrents. There is a ton of info out there so happy hunting.

5. Easynews...
I like it a lot. Not free, but worth the small monthly fee. Filetrading through usenet.... couldn't be better.

8. Limewire
Get the Pro version if possible. No spyware, and a LOT of people use it.
