No much you can do with OS 9 (or classic). Download the classic LW version there http://www.limewire.com/english/cont...oadfree2.shtml

No torrent program on OS9 known.

Ciao

To run LW in OS 9 make sure you have the last updates: MRJ 2.2.6 for OS 9.2.2
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=120209

& OS 9 updates http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=75288

Don't forget to rebuild desktop after installing new software. ie: reboot whilst holding down Command + Option keys.

A list of bit torrent programs are here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compari...rrent_software

But I think you'll find none are compatible with OS 9. And besides, OS 9 has a file size limit of about 2 GB. And also besides, OS 9 programs are getting harder to get now.

For anything under that size, you can probably get it on the gnutella network anyway. There's different p2p networks & gnutella is one of them.

The torrent support brought into the LW betas will only run on OSX.

Torrents are different to a network like gnutella. Whilst LW Beta has only just added a torrent option, that's not it's main thing. The main thing is the gnutella network sharing.

For OS9, search .sit & see what you come up with. ;)

Also, to be on the safe side, Arrange search results by size (click on link) so the largest files are at the top of the search results. As you know, any program is going to be larger than 2,000 KB (2 MB)

Thanks Lord...
Now, simply : how to get big and important software ??
i did not find on gnutella network so much important softwares ...
thanks
:rolleyes:

Are you looking for softw for OS 9 or another OS? The no. of OS 9 users/sharers out there is getting smaller every year. I did such a search & most apps are for OSX, only a few that can be run in OS9 & with the carbon extension (carbon programs can run in both OS 9 & OSX, but you'd need to do research to find out which ones & which versions.) There are still OS 9 games out there.

ellias November 10th, 2006 08:04 AM

OS 9 and OSX too!
 
Hi Lord,

Thanks...
:rolleyes:
