Wanted to hear your thoughts about the new version of URLBlaze. It now supports locatiing of Torrent files. Now that its getting hard to find those Torrent files it seems like URLBlaze is the solution for the problem. When ppl DO find a site with Torrent links in it they actually share it with the rest of the community. Of course URLBlaze still have problems with firewalled users (asks you to open a port), but other then that with the Torrent support it really rocks...


Your thoughts pls...

I tried URLBlaze and desided to give it a try. First I couldn't get any searches to come up. Second, when I ran Spybot, it showed that there was alot of spyware and adware in the program.
I removed the program from my computer at once.

hmmm yes I hate when it happen dude... URLBlaze got some bundled software in it but you can OPT it out. I also asked in their forum about the BHO adaware finds and its part of the program, it is a dll that actually collect the URLs you share in the network. So when I install URLBlaze I OPT out the spyware and also I have no problems finding stuff...
Did u wait for network connection to be established?

I opted out by not clicking on any of the options that they gave me. I then ran Spybot. It showed that there was Spyware in URLBlaze. Not all the bundled spyware was removed. That's why I ran Spybot. It actually showed that there was still Spyware or adware in the program. I ran Spybot before I downloaded URLBlaze and it came out clean. I reran it after downloading it. I didn't click on the options to add the stuff and the results from Spybot were that there was Adware or Spyware in that program
