www.shareaza.com
It is open source. The code is on source forge and freely available to anybody, this makes it impossible to put spyware/adware/malware in it.
Download it from that site and that site only. Other places on the internet have distributed fake/modified versions or try to get you to pay for it.
If you're computer is fucked up from spyware:

Some antivirus software such as Trend Micro will scan for some adware/spyware as well, free online scan available here: http://housecall.trendmicro.com/

due to my addiction to p2p software i've learned to correct my problems......sometimes it has to come down to a reformat....but that's easy...also spybot search and destroy is a good spyware remover.......and ccleaner can get rid of some other bad stuff plus make your computer faster if you don't know how to clean it properly...

Could you give me some tips on re-formatting? My hard drive badly needs, but I've never done it myself before, and I'd like to learn...

uhmm......well the only ways i know to do it is have a set of system recovery disks or like my computer have a back up harddrive that makes everything back to factory condition.....and i just save the rest of my stuff on cds......but you can go to forums.devhardware.com and one of the many computer gurus i'm sure would be glad to help you....

they probaly did that so they can cah himliek deeling or somshit

My shared folder is 42.3 Gigz. Hella albums, programs and movies. They'd lock me up and throw away the key :p

i use shareaza too and exeem. heard limewire is great too they run on the same network as bearshare and shareaza i think..
exeem is the best for big files! dvds, games, apps..

just take it out of your shared folder when you get up to about 500 songs there...I have thousands of songs and movies and stuff...and they cant do anything about it

I don't thing they are as concerned with people who download as they are with people who UPLOAD in bulk, who go out on the first day of release and buy a copy and immediately put it out on the web.Discretion is the word.

I got caught. Sorta. I was downloading a movie for my aunt (Rundown) and they caught me and sent an email to web provider.

Provider says if I'm caught again, they turn off the net for us.

So, I got smart and started using blocker programs etc etc.

I also hardly keep anything in My Shared Folder. But my ALL MULTIMEDIA (homemade) folder is 44.5 Gigs big. Downloaded albums, games, soundtracks, books, comics, movies, tv shows, and programs I've downloaded.

If they found me with all THAT stuff, I'd be so screwed.
