Publisher's description of Shareaza 1.8.10.4

From Shareaza:

Shareaza has features that are unheard of in other file-sharing applications, from ghost ratings to a completely user-configurable queue area to multinetwork support. Shareaza started out as a Gnutella client but recently branched out and developed Gnutella2, a completely open and documented network. Boasting 50,000 users, Gnutella2 is well on its way to the top. In addition, Shareaza supports the eDonkey network and BT. Shareaza's interface is easy-to-use yet powerful and fully skinnable.

Shareaza's download core was purpose-built to provide optimum performance from any number of sources. Shareaza can manage your download queue automatically, or you can take charge and modify the status of files or even individual physical transfers and sources.

Editor's review of Shareaza 1.8.10.4

4.0 stars

Although the bigger names in the P2P world still maintain a lion's share of users, several smaller entities have popped up. These developers appeal to those fed up with the fluff, adware, and general bundled ugliness so common in the more popular apps. Shareaza is focused and lean, with a pleasurable interface and connections to the Gnutella2, Gnutella, and eDonkey networks. Most notably Shareaza is adware- and spyware-free. This alone makes it a good choice. It's also easy to use; we had no trouble quickly figuring out how to search, check our network status, and customize the interface. Search results were extremely fast, but we wished each new search automatically spawned a new tab. Shareaza also has a built-in media player that works fine for playing common audio and video files. The file-management system is a disaster, however. With a slew of folders divided and subdivided into all sorts of categories, the odds of losing a file is far greater than finding the one you're looking for. Overall, though, Shareaza is a breath of fresh air with its hands-off approach and trim size.
