I'm going to go ahead and let it be known that this type of thread is generally the type that leads towards talk of warez. PC Mechanic does not tolerate warez discussions, so please... careful where you tread on this topic.

That said... I like Morpheus.

The program itself isn't warez, but that file that are being shared usually are.

That being said, Morpheus and WinMX is good.

Bearshare, easiest for newbies, with built in pron blocker.
Morpheus, full featured for multimedia (movies and MP3's with built in player/browser etc.)
WinMX, too complicated, multiple server connects, depending on filetype. I found it much slower than others.
Limewire, the original, now a little dated.
