I've downloaded a program, Limewire to be specific, and it downloaded as a .bin file, I'm not exactly sure what to do with it, so could someone shed some light for me?
Thanks, rufius
Limewire is cool, has a nice friendly face on it too It's Java that gives everyone the headache from this install, not LimeWire itself And supposedly the latest version supports "swarming" which apparently means that you can download from multiple people to speed up your download. I wasn't aware you couldn't do this before. Is something like this available in gtk-gnutella or qtella?
