eMule is the most reliable peer-to-peer file sharing clients around the world and one of the biggest. Thanks to it's open source policy many developers can contribute to the project, making the network more efficient with each steep. eMule is a filesharing client which is based on the eDonkey2000 network, but it can offer more features than the standard eDonkey client.
Features available:

o Kad is now in an open testphase, eMule v0.42 can be enabled to use Kad
