MetaMachine has released an updated candidate of the popular hybrid P2P file sharing client eDonkey 2000 v.0.49.4. This client is also compatible with the Overnet network. The new release was tested for some weeks now as it includes a new download system called Horde. Read more... About Horde: You will join the Horde for a file you are downloading. You will then find other users that are also in the Horde and partner with them. This means that you will each send parts of the file to each other until it is complete. This way you work closely with other people that are also downloading the file to complete it together. The Horde will work together to ensure that the file is downloaded as fast as possible to everyone. When you download in a Horde you are always seeking partners that give you the best speeds. Since everyone is doing this, those that have the highest upload speeds will also get the highest download speeds. If you don't upload then you wont find people to partner with you so your downloads will be sluggish. With Horde the more you give the more you will receive. Note: Older versions and temporary files are NOT compatible. Download Overnet 0.49.4 Download eDonkey2000 0.49.4 Full eDonkey Changelog
