Spyware? Could be going a bit far. Adware more like it. There is always emule and amule though. Both opensource and without spyware, adware, etc. You lose Overnet, but you gain Kad, plus a lot more. Like emule now supports Protocol Obfuscation.

eMules itself is clean, give it a go.

What may be on there could be infected, so watch what you download!

Look at comments, file sizes and the amount of people who have already downloaded it.

eMule would probably be your best bet as far as a clean p2p ed2k client goes. But if your dead stuck on getting emule there is a "lite" version available. I tried it once and it didnt seem to install anything bad (virus,spyware,etc). if you want it i believe the link is fslite.com
