New feature for VIP members

Some of you noticed it already, there's a new VIP-only feature available: DIMEchat. Learn more about it here.
 

November 30, 2007:

All releases of Shareaza are now blocked from use on DIME. It violates the protocol specs and reports incorrects stats. Use a dedicated BitTorrent client such as one of DIME's recommendations.
