Hardly anything seems to download...has it been shut down?.....

Are there any good (free) alternatives?...

eldudereno

Morpheus is a good alternative

ALi-B

iTrader: (1)

Bit-torrent still refuses to die

LG John

Is Morpheus loaded with spyware, adware, etc?

sti-04!!

Limewire

Limewire - very fast DL's not much ****
Emule- good for eveything but often slow

If you have stuff to share then DC++ is excellent for everything.

If you are worred about sharing illegal stuff - you don't need to - I share music videos and tv shows n stuff but allows me to get whatever I want.

I used Kazaalite, but recently wanted the first Green Wing series. I tried eMule & managed to get the whole lot. The eMule system seems to be more supported these days than Kazaa.

No-one has mentioned downloading any mp3s or anything

(oh look i've said the trigger word )

Nick

Shirley everyone uses allofmp3 for that? I don't see the point of stealing music if you can buy it legally for 20 cents a track!

SiDHEaD

Depends. That's fine for commercial stuff but I tend to want obscure remixes - defo need to use DC++ and certain music forums for those. I suppose this isn't illegal anyway, the person making the bootleg is the illegalist

Happy New Year EXSCOOBY! I was wondering where my favorite Personal Assistant had gone. In this case my help isn't needed, there are plenty of legitimate downloads available via all of the software mentioned. Keep up the good work though, you're special.

EXSCOOBY

happy to help and happy new year to you

No worries, steroid abusing, obnoxious, software thieving XBox 360 tout.

Kazza and the Kazza lite network have been taken over by the BSA (Business Software Alliance). They are monitoring and tracing IP addresses in the hope of securing convictions both for the illegal sharing and downloading of copyright protected materials.

Solution = don't download illegal stuff, especially as it's naughty!

rgv_stu

anything any good at blocking your ip then

Scooby Soon!

If i was going to do some downloading i definetly wouldn't use limewire

TyPe~~R

Emule is the overall winner i would say, everythings on there to download, the only draw back are the speeds and when all the decent servers are full.
