Best alternatives to LimeWire?

LimeWire is driving me absolutely insane because it keeps digging up a mountain of useless garbage...
I mean—stuff like "Bill_Gates_gets_pranked"... just endless files of random celebrities...
Thanks in advance.
What kind of files are you looking for, and what's your internet setup like?
1) If you're grabbing music (single tracks rather than full albums) and need them instantly, LimeWire is still your best bet.
2) If you have unlimited high-speed internet, go with eMule or torrents. You can pull entire DVDs this way, provided you leave the connection running constantly. These are the standard tools. eMule has the most massive library, but you won't get things instantly; you have to wait, but eventually, everything downloads.
3) If you want full albums immediately, use DC++.
