Anyone used it yet, and what do you think of it if you have ?

**SteveCRM** · May 7th, 2002, 03:44 PM

I don't like it...don't like the interface and I can never connect

**zmerlinz** · May 7th, 2002, 03:49 PM

)

Where'd you think they get the money to maintain the software/networks from?

I like DC++ (Direct Connect client) - definitely no spyware because it's got the source available

what;s the address mike ?

**JungleMan** · May 7th, 2002, 05:03 PM

The name sounds pretty sad...

I like WinMX

**HarryW** · May 7th, 2002, 05:05 PM

I just started using eDonkey. Combined with www.sharereactor.com it seems pretty damn good

Takes ages to find a server it can connect to though. Is that just me?

Harry, I must admit, that I've only used it briefly this evening as I'm waiting for my adsl to be finished, but from what my friends have been saying that edonkey plus share reactor is pretty damn good

**Ianpbaker** · May 7th, 2002, 05:11 PM

although it did take a while to connect when I did use it.

I was going to get Edonkey until I found out that the milk crate was an optional extra so I went for a more reachable Egoat.

I use edonkey. It's pretty darn good. Has almost all the files but most of the time it takes ages to connect to a user to download a file. But if you are lucky, it can download at about 100KB/S on my Cable which is pretty good compared to Morpheus.
DC is also pretty good but it doesn't have that much stuff on it and most of the time, the user you want to download from doesn't have an extra slots. Its download/upload speed is pretty good though.

what does sharereactor do?
and how do you use it in tandem with edonkey?

**Ianpbaker** · May 8th, 2002, 03:16 AM

share reactor gives you a list of the most recent files and an Edonkey link which automatically sends the file to edonkey to download

It's got absolute buggeryloads of stuff on! You just have to know where to look

As far as slots go, I've done deals in the past (I open a slot for you, you open one for me) - works quite well

Ian - www.neo-modus.com but wait until aDSL
