Re: OT: \'BearShare\'
Bear share also carries alot of spy ware. Make sure you delete all this extra unwanted but installed software.
If you want to find out about it just search on spy ware and bear share.
You will be surpriesed on the stuff they install for you. And its constantly eating your bandwidth.

Re: OT: \'BearShare\'
Thanks guys, will use this program....for now. Looked deeper into it and it only runs when enabled, otherwise it is not present (good!), Battlenet must have had some of its famous 'LagFest' weeks.....Hopefully this addiction will end soon and I can get back to se4  (Gold should create an entire new addiction I believe  )

Re: OT: \'BearShare\'
I know the feeling... I hate it when I forget to close Morpheous and start playing a multiplayer game like StarCraft.
Anyway get Morpheous or KaZaA because they are a lot better that BearShare (IMHO).

Re: OT: \'BearShare\'
I agree, Morpheus and Kazaa are much better file sharing programs. I had Bearshare for about 2 days before I decided it was a waste of time trying to get anything off of it.
I switched to Kazaa solely because they had the download-the-same-file-from-multiple-Users thing, so i can get stuff 5x.
On Bearshare I always seemed to be downloadeding off the slowest bastard on the lot. Now I download from the 5 slowest bastards on the lot and get everything really fast.

Re: OT: \'BearShare\'
I have only one problem with Morpheus/Kazaa/etc., and that's the fact that you will rarely (if ever) find an audio file with better than 128kbps/44.1kHz quality. Other than that, those programs are superior to BearShare. BearShare has killed my connection more than once (I get a normal amount of incoming packets, and outgoing packets are slowed to about one per minute or stopped altogether; only fixed by reboot and reconnect).

Re: OT: \'BearShare\'
Maybe, but if you have broadband Morpheous and KaZaA allow you to download videos and even some cool software (but check for viruses!).
