I would reccomend mldonkey, it can access many different p2p networks like fastrack a.k.a kazaa, edonkey/emule, gnutella/gnutella2, soulseek, direct connect, open napster, and bittorent.On Wed, 2004-11-10 at 10:13, Dennis Myers wrote:

that you can't open .exe files in linux? I downloaded BitTorrent and was hoping to run it to download stuff but it is a .exe file. Any help please
Technically you can use wine to run .exe under linux, but you should better find a linux version of your program.
check out
http://linuxshop.ru/linuxbegin/win-lin-soft-en/table.shtml
for a list of linux versions of windows programmes.
Please notice all of the different ways to solve the problem. Who says linux is not feature rich, man I do love MandrakeLinux. Welcome to the new world geoff. : )
Yes Thanks to all of you for your help. It IS a new world for me and I'm having a ball learning to live in it. Regards Geoff
Go to urpmi.org, use easyurpmi to help you set up a repository for plf, then as root type:
urpmi mldonkey-gui
When it is installed you can type: nohup mlnet
Then you can close your consol window and use the gui.
If you want, I can give you some other suggestions for making it work as well as possible.
Joe.
