I used to use it. It was ok, kinda slow at times and you couldn't always find everything. But it was awesome for finding anime. Ever since I got morpheus, i haven't used edonkey.

I use it all the time for big files like movies and games. It has everything you need. the only downfall is that it's slow as hell. For smaller files i use Morpheus

No known spyware. There's a link to the latest stable beta in the forums. Also read the faqs for optimal setup to enhance download speed. I have exceed 80 kb sec downloads. Use sharereactor.com for direct links to known good files on the donkey. Do not click on Exit Wounds, it lives up to it's name. Some kinda joke by the webmaster. Use a popup killer as well.

Since eDonkey uses multi-sourced downloads, it's pretty efficient at getting large files. However, it's a bit buggy (tends to slow down and hang at the end of a large transfer). In general, however, I like it. I would run an edonkey server, but it doesn't work that well, if at all, through NAT.

I played around a bit with Direct Connect, and so far consider it a slightly improved version of Hotline. I'll have to do more testing to have a more definitive opinion, however.
