Well my friends, I have spent some additional time using bearshare and have found it to be one of the worst pieces of code to occupy some of my hard drive space. I am dumping it and changing over to
FreeWire which is of course based on Limewires code yet improved and open source GPL. No nags No shopping BS no BS period.
I have yet to give it a full work out but you can bet I will be over the weekend.
As for LimeWire and BearShare
dump them both!
I am setting up a new fbsd 4.5 box here this weekend and will want to try out some open sorce GPL clients under it. any suggestions?
greed is evil !!!
