Ultimate Predator Posted October 23, 2005 Share Posted October 23, 2005 Been axed, as far as I know. Move over to safe soulseek; Site: http://www.slsknet.org Direct Safe Download: http://files.slsknet.org/slsk156c.exe Really good, and you can download WHOLE albums in one go, not all the songs in one continous file playing, but seperate songs in one folder.

Ultimate Predator Posted November 3, 2005 Share Posted November 3, 2005 Kaazaa, its meant to cause problems... Soulseek is small space, and takes up next to no CPU. Just download it, give it a go, if you can't find what you're looking for, find another P2P program. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators hazelnut Posted November 5, 2005 Moderators Share Posted November 5, 2005 Thought I'd give your recommendation a go Tarun. Have downloaded and run it. Not too bad at all. If you were with winmx like me, this is not a bad second choice. Once I got my head round the settings (not my strong point!) it is easy to use and works in a very similar way to winmx.

Ultimate Predator Posted November 5, 2005 Share Posted November 5, 2005 Tested Limewire, yes t is over-run with spyware. Use soulseek, never caused me any problems whatsoever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Rochip Posted November 5, 2005 Share Posted November 5, 2005 I used Limewire for a long time and really liked it. However the latest version installed or allowed to be installed lots of serious and very hard to remove malware. The older versions let some adware etc. through but I was aware of it and it was easily removed. I think it's too bad the program is now basically worthless in my opinion, It's certainly not worth all the trouble it causes. I'm thinking the same thing is happening to Download.com since they still list it despite their "no malware" pledge and in fact give it their hearty recommendation. Then I read some of the over-the-top "User's Comments" which obviously come from people living in some sort of alternate universe very different than ours. I've been using SoulSeek from Ultimate Predator's recommendation and it may not be as flashy as some of the others but it's easy to learn to use and offers a lot of content and some pretty neat features and options of it's own.

Ultimate Predator Posted November 6, 2005 Share Posted November 6, 2005 Thanks for taking my advice. I agree, presentation wise it lacks, but it is powerful, and you can download whole albums in one go, a gem in my view. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
