I haven't had audiogalaxy on my system for a while, scanned for viruses don't have a problem.

i dunno about morpheus, i was on it the other day and one of the popups came with a download box - i said no
it was probably a virus, said something about 10 seconds free of something...

Sometimes Audiogalexy stinks, then sometimes I find some awesome stuff on it that I've been looking for and could never find on Morpheus...Especially the more obscure stuff.

Yeah I found Planet P Project on AG. Also some Starz, hows that for obscure

I have heard that they run spyware while your connected, I don't know if that's true. I just did a scan and found no virus, and have been D/L songs today. Well all's well.

Mix in some Trans Global Underground, and DoubleDrive..
One thing I am confused by, is in Morpheus, I thought the database was formed by the users. I was ICQing with a TechIMO friend one night, and he couldn't find my DoubleDrive stuff on Morpheus even tho I had the program open..
