Recommended Posts

Can you beta testers verify the existance of ad or spywares, if any? One of the previous "back page news" threads spreaded rumors about Cydoor.

lol....

what rumors???

people posted pictures of the spyware removing programs after they uninstalled eXeem....and it has been confirmed by the people releasing eXeem that it has Cydoor.....

Thats what i would like to know.

Is it not just another torrent downloader?

What does it have that is SO amazing? that ppl wont stop raving about it.

It's more than a downloader since it's decentralized in the sense that everyone is a tracker, along with that you search for files from within the client, so *AA can supposedly only shut down users, not web sites. (assuming exeem doesn't connect to some host that's necessary for the whole thing to work after all; I don't know)

However, since there are public trackers that has torrents with thousands of seeds+leechers and showing no signs of being shut down whatsoever, I agree the hype is a bit big. :)

Wouldn't you rather have the sites shut dwn and users not sued? Maybe that's just me. If you going to pirate crap, and lets face it, that's what Suprnova was/is about (directly or indirectly) I would rather see them get shut down then sue who's downloading. The whole idea of this eXeem thing is over hyped crap that'sjust going to make the MPAA and RIAA go after users. If they do it with Kazaa, why not this? It's 100 times simpler to get an IP from this then it is from Kazaa, et al. All you have to do is make 2 clicks and you have a whole list of IP's for people downloading "file x".

Isnt Exeem sopose to be released Public Around Jan 17-24...Its already the 20 where is it? Also My friend who is a beta tester told me that LimeWire is better then this.

2. How can eXeem? be free?

eXeem? is supported only by ad revenue. This allows the developers to continue making upgrades to the network and enhancing the eXeem client for you.

3. Do I have to pay for eXeem??

No, eXeem? is completely free and it can only stay free with ads. This is why, trying to remove the ads will only hurt the future development of the program.

This should prove more than anything what I have been saying. Liquid, shut down your lite version or you will ruin it for everyone.

The ops and moderators in the eXeem irc channel have been told to ban anyone who links to or mentions eXeem lite. They do NOT condone your actions to make a lite version.

By the way if you didn't already know, eXeem IS in all rights their property. Editing and distributing a closed source program is illegal, whether you have to pay for it or not. You are messing with other peoples intellectual property, and it is illegal to distribute.

For the same reasons you cannot change a taskbar on someone's theme and distribute it, you cannot distribute the lite version of eXeem. It does not have to be filed with any copyright group to be someone elses property.

You may not think anything of it now, but remember your lite version runs on their servers. If they don't get the money they need to keep those servers up, both clients will die.
