Shareaza is the most luxurious and sophisticated file sharing system you'll find.

Shareaza is a peer-to-peer client for Windows that allows you to download any file-type found on several popular P2P networks. Shareaza is FREE & contains NO Spyware or third-party products. Shareaza can connect to up to 4 separate Peer-to-Peer networks, providing access to hundreds of thousands of diverse users, all from one single program. You can download/upload from these networks: EDonkey2000, Gnutella, BitTorrent and Gnutella2 (G2).

Features:

  • The ability to download the same file simultaneously from multiple networks.
  • Scheduler, which allows users to schedule tasks on Shareaza for a later period.
  • Media Player - unlike some peer-to-peer software's media players, Shareaza's completely bypasses corruption and merges file chunks into one, creating a previewable video from virtually any amount of downloaded segments. This does not include sound in MPEGs however.
  • Complete unicode support, as well as numerous translations.
  • The ability to 'skin' the interface, allowing users to change its appearance and more...

What's New:

DC++ and Gnutella updates, enhanced anti-spam protection, multi-file download merging, and other fixes and improvements are included in this release. Shareaza was first released in mid-2002 with rapid development from its creator. In 2004, Shareaza became free and open source as its creator moved onto other pursuits. The project has faced internal and external battles at times, but it continues to survive and thrive in an increasingly hostile environment.

  • This is a bug fix release version. Some optimizations were made, Win9x support was reviewed and serious bugs were fixed. It's the last version of Shareaza with Win9x support.
  • All users are urged to upgrade to this version because of very important security fixes.
