Your computer is infected, period. Moving to another P2P software to download illegal data wouldn't get your computer working satisfactorily again. Also, all P2P programs and almost equally likely to get your computer infected... some are a lot worse than others, but it'll eventually happen anyways.

If you're that desperate to continue downloading illegally, get Azureus and download torrents (BitTorrents or others).

Chat with Nabhan and he could help you.

Otherwise, go to sites like www.torrentspy.com. Scan through the loads of files there and click on whatever movie/show/song you want to download. It will have a file called a "torrent" file, which you should download to somewhere on your computer. Double click that and Azureus opens up (otherwise, open it with Azureus). And you're good to go. Read online for more info about seeding, leaching and all.

Give Big Poppa a :candy: now.
