I was just wondering...
 

I am using Bearshare lite because someone told me it had less spyware or malware or something like that on it. Anyway I was just wondering if the regular Bearshare downloaded files quicker.

Read here and you'll understand (especially the post of LOTR including the link):

AFAIK BS lite is basically the same as the free version in regards to performance...

what I would suggest is reading the first post in the following thread, download the linked version of BearShare and BearStart.exe, and use them!: http://www.gnutellaforums.com/showth...ight=bearstart

using that version you can force it into UP status and really rock!
