This is funny, I tried to get Wine working last night as I want to run KazaaLite. I dont have much time in the evenings and all I got to work was progman! Need to do some reading.
Aside, does anyone know of any P2P clients like Kazaa which run under Linux?
Take Care,
Jamie

There are Linux clients for the Gnutella network. I found gtk-gnutella with is GPL but apparently there are Linux/Unix versions of LimeWire, Mutella, Phex and Qtella too, though I haven't checked if any of these others are free (in either sense).
Windows clients on the Gnutella network include BearShare, Gnucleus, LimeWire, Morpheus, Phex, Swapper and XoloX.

Limewire works for me. It's not free as it is nagware. (i.e. It's free if you don't mind the nagbox appearing every once and a while at startup)
I have experienced a few crashes (usually when using the built in MP3 Player controls) and sometimes it seems to hog my machine a little. But generally it is well featured and easy to use.
The windows version is/was full to the brim of spyware.
I have MLdonkey sitting on my machine, but I haven't had the time to check it out yet. MLdonkey seems to have the distinct advantage that you can attach a variety of GUI's to it, one of which is a web interface. Meaning that I could manage my downloads easily from work without hogging precious office Internet connectivity.
Hi Guys,
Thanks for all your replies on and offline line. Once I get some time to play with Linux and P2P file sharing I'll let u know the results.
Take Care,
Jamie
