I like it,REALLY),movies,Howard Stern show and almost never use the kazaa

Sorry terrible spelling, yacht, you know a sail boat.
Well frankly neither. Kazaa(lite) is all well and good for the odd
'popular' thing. emule is best for the more obscure, but 'bittorrents' are
the newest and fastest by a long way. I'm currently seeding the History of
Britain Ep.5 and have been doing so at about 150kb/s for the last 24 hours.
So far 6579mb worth of happy 'leechers' serviced. This of course is just
the 5th of 15 episodes and the previous 4 all got about 15 gigs worth of
seeding.
I must pause to mention that it's not just this 'high brow' shit that gets
posted. 'Bittorrents' has a very broad church of material available - check
out a site called Supernova - no point in posting a link 'coz it jumps to
mirror sites almost every day. However this place seems to keep track of
everything pretty well http://www.torrentlinks.com/
The hardest thing is too say to yourself "I really don't need to keep this
stuff on my hard disk any longer" 'coz you'll soon run out of space. At
300 kb/s it's almost pointless to download heavily compressed .avi files
only to discover you don't have the relevant codec. That latest episode of
'Enterprise' with great picture quality and sound in mpeg format at 450mbs
is just an hour's download!

WinMX (totally schweet for J-porn)
Soulseek (hard to find music)
Kazaa Lite K++ (too many fake filenames and virii)
Filetopia (protects your IP)
eMule (big files, verified movies, TV shows)
Ares Galaxy 1.8.1 (looks like it might become big
very fast.)
Might I suggest the 'bittorrent' program that calls itself 'experimental'.
It allows you to more carefully track your up/down loads and to throttle the
upload speed.
Be aware that the program does NOT have a recognizable footprint in your
program directory. You don't fire it up. When clicking on a 'bittorrent'
file the program will start automatically. You download the 'torrent'
file - they are only about 50kb in size - and then open that file, select
where you want to save the, for example, mpeg file and then the process
starts. The slide bar will move very rapidly initially since the program is
'allocating' the necessary space. Then the substantive download will start.
Sometimes just left mouse clicking on a 'bittorrent' file link will start
the download process but soon result in a 'bad tracker' message and the file
won't download. Instead, you should right mouse click and 'Save Target As',
then open the file - if it won't download then the file is not being seeded.
This place http://tinyurl.com/nxi0 is worth checking out - you have to
register.
Making available your own stuff is nice, but so long as you seed at least
what you leech then there'll always be seeding junkies prepared to do the
time-consuming ripping and uploading

emule does a very good impression of a hangup whenever I try to run it.
Any ideas?

Humans have to stop treating each other like they treat us ants. Think
about it. If we build, say, a pair of very tall structures, like two
anthills side-by-side, some stupid human swoops in out of nowhere and
knocks them down. Or humans will drop food on the ground near us. we
think it's for us, but those same humans will also try to kill us! I
have no sense of irony, I'm just an ant. But if I did, I'm sure I'd
notice that.

I don't just mean a server disconnect, which that implies. Im talking
hard reboot kind of hangup. I shouldve been clearer.
