i wouldnt use any of them seen as the network that they use has alot of fake files one of the best and easiest ones to use would be ares galaxy but if u really want to use one of the ones u mentioned i would use limewire.

it only uses a small amount of memory to run it never makes your pc crash limewire used to make mine crash nearly all the time when i had limewire and internet explorer open which would eventually make me have to restart my computer also the network ares uses has alot less fake files than limewire and my downloads are alot faster with ares than they were with limewire. heres the link .:: Ares - [Home] the ultimate p2p filesharing software ::.

Oh, thanks, but i might use FrostWire for a month more. Then i might switch to Ares Galary. FrostWire's pretty good for me.

hi
if your on a cable connection not adsl it would be better for you to use torrents and a client like utorrent to download your torrent of choice.

Personnaly I think that for any music files Limewire is the best, always finds anything I'm looking for but don't use it for films. For movies Azureus Vuze is very good and if you download movies it is important on which website are you searching for them...torrent websites are good.
