I downloaded Morpheus 2.0 MP3 downloader and I was wondering if it has spyware on it since it kind of is associated with Kazaa?

It used to come with BDE, a type of spyware that also came with Kazaa that sells your computer space and stuff, I know currently it still comes with WurldMedia Spyware, Latest I know about it anyway,

There is some info about WurldMedia, If you want a file sharing program without the yucky spyware/scumware..


Go with Winmx, Search for it at download.com

If you want a list of which filesharing programs come with spyware and which don't, go to..

Morpheus may contain other types of spyware as well... hmm

Why search for WinMX at download.com, when you can just go to their site at http://www.winmx.com.
Does anyone else actually miss Napster?

Cause I wasn't 100% sure www.winmx.com was the correct link and was too damn lazy to check :p

Thanks this info will help me out alot. For a while I had Kazaa then someone told me there was spyware on it and we ended up having a virus on our computer because of that but we got it fixed then I deleted that so now I'm looking for a new MP3 downloader.

I dont think Kazaa itself has a virus unless you downloaded a version of it from a hackers website or somethin... but many of its files have viruses in em, Like a lot of them! :eek: :( :eek: :( :eek:
