Shareaza 2.7.3.0
Description
Shareaza is a powerful and versatile internet software that allows users to download and share files across multiple networks. With its unique features, including ghost ratings, a completely user-configurable queue area, and multinetwork support, Shareaza has become one of the most popular file-sharing programs available today.
Originally developed as a Gnutella client, Shareaza has since branched out to include Gnutella2, a completely open and documented network. This means that users can access an even wider range of files than ever before. Whether you're looking for music, movies, or other types of media files, Shareaza makes it easy to find what you need.
One of the key advantages of Shareaza is its user-friendly interface. The program is fully skinnable so you can customize it to suit your preferences. The interface is also intuitive and easy to navigate so even novice users will be able to get started quickly.
Another major advantage of Shareaza is its download core which was built with performance in mind. It can handle downloads from any number of sources simultaneously without compromising speed or stability. This means that you can download large files quickly and efficiently without having to worry about interruptions or slowdowns.
In addition to its powerful downloading capabilities, Shareaza also offers advanced management features for your download queue. You can choose whether the program manages your queue automatically or take charge yourself by modifying the status of individual transfers or sources.
Overall, if you're looking for a reliable file-sharing program with advanced features and excellent performance capabilities then look no further than Shareaza!
Review
Although the bigger names in the P2P world still maintain the lion's share of users, several smaller entities have popped up. These programs appeal to those fed up with the fluff and third-party software often found in the more popular applications.
Shareaza is focused and lean, with a gorgeous interface and connections to the Gnutella2, Gnutella, eDonkey, and BitTorrent networks. It's also handsome and easy to use; we had no trouble quickly figuring out how to search, check our network status, and customize the interface through a healthy choice of skins. Search results were extremely fast, although we wish each new search automatically spawned a new tab. Shareaza also has a decent built-in media player for common audio and video formats. Other features include a chat client and the ability to schedule transfers.
The file-management system, with a slew of folders divided and subdivided into all sorts of categories, may overwhelm novices, though seasoned file-sharers probably won't have that much trouble. Overall, though, Shareaza's design, performance, and trim size provide make it a nice choice for peer-to-peer users.
