lol, In Fact I do Have WinMX,Bearshare and Audiogalaxy,although I'm thinking of removing Bearshare sine I don't use it much and Don't like it.
Also What is an FTP site? Is that what Audiogalaxy runs on? Thanks for answering my 3 Questions

1. Spyware or Adware is that the advertising companies install additional tracking software on your system, which is continuously calling home, using your Internet connection and reports statistical data.
2. An FTP Site is a server where downloading and uploading can be accomplished. When you log onto an FTP server, it works like navigating through your hard drive. A server is a program on a computer which services client requests. You connect to an FTP server by knowing its IP address and the port it runs on.
3. Audiogalaxy is not an ftp but a peer-to-peer filehare app similar to that of napster.
