Default grutella1&2 & e-donkey??????

Can anyone explain what the different "networks" are, I recently removed a well known shareware program from my PC because I was told Limewire was the in thing, I tried the freebie version and thought, hey this isnt bad, so I splashed out and bought LimewirePRO expecting the promised better search results etc. only to find it no different to the freebie version.
My old shareware gave me access to grutella, grutella2 and e-donkey at the click of a button, plus tremendous search results and reasonably quick downloads.
Can I configure Limewire to access grutella 2 and e-donkey to get the same results or have I just wasted my cash????

All help gratefully recieved.

I also use morpheus, the free version. It works ok, for the most part. I spent the money for bearshare pro, and the forum there says it has a limited future.

thanks for the input guys,

have done a few "comparison tests" between my old shareware and Limewire and now have to admit that Limewire is FAST compared to the other, however the search results are still extremely poor, as an example I did a search for music vids of my fave band, Limewire only ever finds a few (typically the ones I already have) whilst the other shareware finds double the amount including several that Limewire can only dream about.
