Hi nobbly,

The thing that really peeves me on these file sharing networks is the amount of people who do not share. I use WINMX and periodically check on the who is facility and will now cut the upload if the person looks like an obvious leech, Very often when checking you'll find the person with a broadband connection is sharing no files, yet has been on the network for 3hrs and downloaded several files, they've obviously no intention of sharing as they must be sending their downloaded files to a non-sharing directory.......Off they go onto the ignore list.

Nobody expects an absolute beginner to have loads of files, but what seems like fifty percent of the downloaders on these networks that have the ability to monitor sharing have no files, or only the ones that they have downloaded in that session. I'm seriously thinking of joining one of the private networks with a forced 2Gig sharing minimum, as I really hate leechers, particularly those with broadband.

I'll try the sofware you mention and see what it's like, i still feel that Kazaa seems to have more files available than any other P2P network.
