I have tried several different p2p programs over the last 5 years.
None of them have delivered like the previews say they do , nor are they as good as the ones who put them out think they are.
The latest one I have going now is E-Mule 45b,(lsatest update ) .
I have 2 things downloading that have been running for over 2 weeks without stopping and they are still not downloaded yet.
I have tried several other downloads , but they will not connect at all to anyone or anything.
Now in this time there have been over 700 people who have got files from me with absolutely no problems .
So am I right in saying that it is the people on these p2p networks that are the problem and if so why do the owners of the p2p networks do something about it , and yes they know , I am not the only one who has sent them e-mails concerning this.
and no it is not my equipment or settings , they are wide open and the system is XP pro media edition with a p4 proccessor and 3.6 ghz and 180g HD with 1.5G ram with 120mb video Gforce 5200.
And Shareaza is a real joke.
