Morpheus

Version: 5.3.2.1062

GOOD or BAD? This is ALL you'll need to know!

Pros: Ok, lets start off with the good things about Morpheus P2P. Morpheus has a lot of results coming up. Morpheus can connect up to 11 G1 hosts and 2 G2 hosts (From what I've experienced). Morpheus connects to G1, G2, and Neo network. Morpheus has its own built in media player which can play audio, video, and images. Morpheus has a customizable playlist. I can say that Morpheus has a real good interface. Morpheus also has it's own internet browser which is inside the program and it connects to any website you type down. When you download a file unlike Limewire which connects up to 11 hosts max, Morpheus connects up to 55 hosts which results into a way faster speed than Limewire. There are preferences you can configure and when you download Morpheus remember to go to the settings and enable Morpheus to connect to G2. Morpheus has a built in Chat rooms which lets you select the chat room that you think is best for you and chat with other hosts. Although most programs already enabled this feature but, Morpheus lets you drag files into a desired folder and save it there for future burning times. you can always press search more when the searching process is done to look for some more files in the networks. You can also always press Get more hosts to backup your file download with more hosts. Morpheus also lets you cancel uploads which leads to faster downloading speeds. Unlike Limewire, when using Morpheus' own media player you can fast-forward the songs.

Cons: Now, the bad parts. When I mentioned earlier on in the pros that Morpheus connects to a lot of hosts. Well, Morpheus sometimes connects to a lot of hosts not all the time. Especially G2 you will only see Morpheus connect to one G2 host only rarely would be connecting to more than one G2 host. Some files you download (This happens to a lot of popular, common, and desperately wanted files.) will give you a message telling you that "You've attempted to download a unauthorized copy of this file, Morpheus will now take you to the page in which the material will interest you (and it'll open your default browser). I didn't believe it at first but, when I was searching for some files on the bottom ads a naked girl showed up but this only happened once. It said somethingmate.com. Morpheus has two sides of ads; one is on the right side vertical about 5 inches on a 17" screen maximized. The other is on the bottom horizontal about 6" on a 17" screen Maximized. Morpheus probably has some infections that come with it, But, I can tell you that you won't even notice it because it doesn't even harm your computer. When you go to Morpheus.com it'll tell you that it has no infections. But, when it says that it is talking about the "Morpheus Ultra". The speed averagely is like the same as Limewire. When a message comes up saying agree on the toolbar press cancel or no. So, now the big question here is LIMEWIRE or MORPHEUS!? Thank You for reading.

Stopzilla

Version: 4.4

Stop StopZilla!

Pros: Dinosaur

Cons: This program isn't a spyware, or malicious software cleaner nor blocker. Instead, It but poorly blocks pop-up ads from being seen on your screen. Don't let them lie to you and say that it blocks or destroys any infection. If you want a good pop-up blocker get Yahoo Toolbar with Anti-Spy. This program is Free and has no 3rd party software or infections. This program (StopZilla) from what I can see has not been spent a lot of time on. StopZilla is just another one of those programs that you can get even a better one for free. I don't recommend this product at all. So go ahead YOU CHOOSE and Thank You for reading.

LimeWire

Version: 4.14.10

Over 123 Million Downloads, What do you think?

Pros: To me now its clear that Limewire is the best P2P program there is. Limewire comes up at least 4,000 results on popular music and can raise up to 150,000 results (I know this from experience). You can find many things on Limewire such as Audio, Video, Documents. . . There is many programs that are clones of Limewire such as Frostwire, Freewire, Lemonwire. . . but Limewire is the best because it's infection-free which means it has no spyware, no adware, no virus, no trojans, no dialers, nothing annoying or harmful. The updates on Limewire are big most of the time, yet small other times. You can share anything you want on Limewire. There is this feature on Limewire I think it's called "Direct Connect" which allows you to connect to a user that is on Limewire for example: If your friend did homework and wants to share it to you, all you do is put in his/her IP address and port number, browse him/her find the file and download it. Limewire also lets you download/share images. There are so much settings and options that you can configure in Limewire which are easy and understandable. From a scale of 1 - 10 for speed I would give Limewire an 8. But for safety purposes and overall I'd give Limewire a 9. Limewire lets you chat with other users in that network and you can send them messages so if you download something and it's confusing you can ask the person you downloaded from by right-clicking and pressing on "Chat with user". The highest speed I had for Limewire was about 315 kb/s (I have cable connection). The average speed I get for Limewire is about 55 - 85 kb/s. Limewire has been doing a good job and just recently they added a more secure encryption service which is like a firewall on Limewire. Limewire has more than 25 million users on each day around the world. You can change the language on Limewire to about 30 other languages. Limewire is very easy to use for people who are new to the P2P networking system.

Cons: Although there is a lot of good things about Limewire, there is very few negatives about it. There is a lot of music spam in it, so make sure that if you're downloading music the file should always be higher than 999 KB. Also, make sure not to download any of those stupid spamming virus files like "Top of the charts 200." "Britney Spears gets pranked." For those who are interested in videos make sure not to get MOV "Quicktime format" files smaller than 20,000 KB. Limewire has a lot of adult content so make sure to hide those by configuring it in the settings for those who have children. Limewire also carries some illegal files such as passwords, so be careful.
