best mac p2p program?

[evilmegaman]

I was wondering what some good programs for mac are. My teacher is a beginner in p2p so it has to be idiot proof... if it has to be gnutella fine but if there is another way around this that would be nice. I think it is an OSX. peace!

Try Acquisition, it's got a really simple interface, and is as good as any other client. You could get overnet or direct connect, but Acquisition is MUCH simpler. Get it from www.xlife.org.:wings

Oh, but it only works with OS X 10.2 and up. Just try to install it to see. It's free, but it'll ask you to donate (you don't have to). Hope it works out.

the most popular and easy to use one's from what i heared are acquisition, and limewire. but get aqualime instead of limewire.

acquisition now costs money... its not too bad tho, its a great program for the cost, and its only $15 anyway. just give up 3 trips to mcd's, and get it, its the best.
