File sharing

Does anyone know if the file sharing program NeoModus installs spyware? I was thinking of using it.

Thanks

Why?
Kazaalite, WinMX, Directconnect (DC++), or blobster are better...Oh, wait, you mean DC++ from NeoModus!!! (DUH!), no, there's no spyware in it, if you say NO to install the optional net thingy when you install it.

None of them are safe, some are just better than others.
Largest content, and probably friendliest to use: kazaalite
Geektool, good content: WinMX
I can't honestly recommend any others. They either contain spyware, ads, are not free, or are just plain difficult to setup and use.
