Hi, I have only heard much about this topic and haven't gotten around to trying either software so please be advised of that. I have heard that earlier versions of bear share are more accessible than the newest release. A great site to check out for WinMx software and scripts is http://www.winmxgroup.com/ As it has been suggested on many topics, accessibility and use of software is subject to the user. Go ahead and install both and see which one works better for you. I have a tutorial written by Simon Dowling specifically for use with WinMX. If anyone would like it please don't reply to the list as they will not be honored but send a request off list to squirman@xxxxxxxxxx Please be sure to include in the body of your request the email address that I may send the attachment to. Also Please use a subject line like "request for WinMX tutorial" or something like that so That I may recognize your intentions. ----- Original Message ----- From: Vicki Sent: Monday, April 23, 2007 7:59 AM Subject: share bear vs. WINMX Which if better with JAWS, Bear Share or WinMX?
