eMule is a filesharing client that enhances the standard client on the eDonkey2000 network. It offers additional features.
This software review focuses on eMule, a client used in conjunction with several networks (ED2K, Source Exchange, Kad) to create one reliable network. Kad is now in an open test phase, and users of eMule v0.42 can enable Kad for their purposes.
One of the perks of eMule is its Queue and Credit system, which promotes those who upload back to the network and helps ensure that everyone can get the file they want. Additionally, eMule is completely free and free of Adware, Spyware, and other unwanted elements. The software is developed for fun and knowledge, rather than profit.
eMule's Intelligent Corruption Control (ICC) helps speed up the correction of corrupted parts, and each file is checked for corruptions during the download process to ensure error-free outcomes. Auto priorities and source management also allow users to start many downloads without needing to monitor each one closely. Another great feature is Preview, which enables users to view videos and archives before they're completed. For video previewing, Video Lan Client comes highly recommended.
eMule is also fully equipped with webservices and a web server for quick access to and from the internet. Users can create categories for downloads to keep everything better-organized. Additionally, a wide range of search possibilities is available, including servers (Local and Global), web-based (Jigle and Filedonkey), and Kad (still in alpha). Users can also use complex Boolean searches to make searches more flexible.
Finally, eMule offers the messaging and friend system, which allows users to send messages to other clients and add them as friends. In the friend list, people can see if a friend is online. The built-in IRC client also comes in handy for chatting with other downloaders and chatters from around the world. All in all, eMule is a versatile and feature-rich software for file sharing.
