1) What does that have to do with best client.
2) Might be a problem with LimeWire, might be a problem with Shareaza. Gnucleus doesn't brose/chat with either. Does that mean it can't be considered the best client?
3) Finally a good point. But its stability hasn't really been put to test on a wide range of systems. Gnucleus is a great client that's considered "mature"; I've hard far more crashes with it than Shareaza. Actually I've never had a non-beta of Shareaza crash on me. But I do see other people complaining about Shareaza so there must be a problem.
4) What does that have to do with best client. Heh...."open source-zealots".....
I wish I had Mike/Shareaza's patience...
Anyway, to the original poster. I suggest Gnucleus or Shareaza. LimeWire if on a non-Windows system. (Mac, Linux, etc.).
