ShareWire

ShareWire is a p2p file sharing program that has been designed to combine the best features of the most popular p2p clients while conserving simplicity and user-friendliness. The developers responded to the need for such a program by creating ShareWire. Based on the original, trouble-free Limewire, this app is focused on simplifying the downloading process and enabling accurate searching.

ShareWire allows you to specify fields for advanced searching options, including title, artist, album, track number, genre, year, length, and bitrate. The multi-platform Gnutella client connects you with an impressive number of peers, making it very resourceful when it comes to finding download sources.

The ShareWire interface is cool and has an intelligent design that balances functionality and aesthetics. The client is equipped with tons of features, including auto-connect, groups, browse host, multiple search, upload throttling, connection quality control, library management, and efficient filtering.

ShareWire's inclination towards convenience is evident with its feature that automatically removes canceled downloads. Other P2P clients force you into a longer two-step process. Moreover, ShareWire provides you with a direct connection to familiar IP addresses for trading files with friends.

ShareWire also provides you with a full-page connection monitor, which allows you to manage incoming searches of the folder you are sharing and track files being uploaded from your computer by other users. The software can be used with no difficulty by first-time downloaders.
