Shareaza is not a leech to Gnutella because if it doesn't connect to Gnutella it doesn't download from Gnutella. But it's not a good servent anyway because it is overloaded too quickly.

Yes, it does connect to Gnutella, not by default, but it still does.

Shareaza is no leech, while a client isn´t connected a client can´t download from the Gnutella network!!! And of course Shareaza connects to G2 by default and not to the others - G2 is the HOME net from Shareaza. The Shareaza developer created the protocol...

Note the small word "IF", trap jaw4 is right here.

Wrong.

The Gnutella download mesh in Shareaza can also find sources in the Gnutella-Network. That means a file found in MikesProtocol could well get to be downloaded via the Gutella network instead of MP.

Non arne, you are partly wrong Shareaza block alternate locations of Gnet clients when you connect only on G2, it wouldn't be fair otherwise. Shareaza is good for the Gnet to introduce edonkey files, but boy it is slow uploading !!!! (because of the overhead of the 4 networks it can connect to, as Trap_Jaw said).

Actually it does not block Gnutella alternate locations, - it drops the connection when it notices it is downloading or uploading to a plain old Gnutella client.
There might be a simple way to download from all Shareaza locations (even those on G2) that you receive. But I'm not sure if the LimeWire devs are going to add it....

Oh, frag *pouts*
And to have it said in french, which I proved again yesterday not to be able to speak (at least not much better than "Je ne sais pas")



So it doesn't do quite as bad as I thought.
