I use a program called Ares. I've used it for the last 4-5 years. Easy to use and laid out similar to Limewire.

I ditched other p2p years ago, too many viruses. At least with torrents you can see other comments which suggest if it is a safe file or a virus.

From the station at Colchester
To the cells of Warrington
From the services at Leicester
To the slums of Northampton
We travel over England
And one day Europe too
Cos we all follow the Swindon
We're the famous Town End crew.

I stopped using p2p years ago too. Never really felt comfortable with allowing people a direct connection to my PC.
I've heard *ahem* there are filesharing forums that will provide links for you to download whole albums, films, TV series etc. from RapidShare (and other hosting sites) these days.

Not that I would condone this of course... ;-) But getting a 30 day unlimited access to Rapidshare or similar could provide you with a lot of downloads in one go very easily and quickly. Torrents are of course the other commone one, and finally Usenet/Newsgroup services. |
