Shareaza is a peer-to-peer file sharing client running under Microsoft Windows which supports the Gnutella, Gnutella2 (G2), eDonkey, BitTorrent, FTP, HTTP and HTTPS[citation needed] network protocols and handles magnet links,[5] ed2k links, and the now deprecated gnutella and Piolet links.[6] It is available in 30 languages.

Shareaza was developed by Michael Stokes[7] until June 1, 2004,[7] and has since been maintained by a group of volunteers. On June 1, 2004, Shareaza 2.0 was released, along with the source code, under the GNU General Public License (GPL-2.0-or-later), making it free software.
