Shareaza 2.5.0.0

Shareaza Development Team - (Open Source)

Exchanging any type of file on several popular P2P networks is a piece of cake with Shareaza, a completely free software.

Shareaza is a Peer-to-Peer client for Windows that allows user to upload files of any type on several popular P2P networks.

With a funny and easy to use interface it allows to connect to the extremely populars Gnutella 2 network (faster) and especially the eDonkey, DirectConnect + + (DC + +) and BitTorrent networks.

Users can filter the files in DRM to fight against any kind of pornography that is legal or not. These filters allow to better find files and not fall on the fake files and viruses that are undesirable.

Shareaza has been specially designed to deliver optimum performance regardless of the number of sources. It uses extensively swarming technology to download files from many sources.
