ever since i downloaded grokster i get constant pop-ups and my internet runs very slow..
is it just grokster that does this?
or do all file sharing programs do this?

Kazaa lite runs on the exact same network ar grokster and kazaa, just without the pop-ups and spyware. It also comes with a few handy features like AVI previewer, etc.
