Anyone ever used Shareaza? Like it, dislike it?

Hate. HATE. It measures transfer speed in bits rather than bytes, first of all, which annoys me to no end. Secondly, it takes forever to find a torrent, when I can usually do it with Azureus in about 10 seconds. And the P2P network pales in comparison to Ares.

Thanks Chimp. I tried Azureus and it works well.

I love it. You can change the bits to bytes if it bugs you that much.

It's more the principal of it. That program tricked me into thinking it was good. Then I noticed bits. Then I hated it. I don't care if it can sign a check for a hundred bucks to me, I don't want it.

Ok, for a hundred bucks, I'll deal with bits instead of bytes/kbytes/whatever
