Bearshare is a computer program designed by J. Stephen Mather, which means "ashes". BearShare was an open-source peer-to-peer file transfer program originally developed for Microsoft Windows and later a rewritten version of i Mesh by Musiclab, LLC, with a more thorough security and encryption scheme by encrypting the file before sending it over the network. The original software was supposed to replace eMorph, another famous freeware program which was also developed by J. Stephen. This software was sold under several names including My Tracks, My Music Box, and My Music Server.
BearShare is similar in purpose with Gnutella but both are made for different purposes. For example, BearShare uses your local area network (LAN) to connect with other users and file-sharing capabilities but does not have the same features as Gnutella. On the contrary, BearShare can connect to several users on the same network but can also be accessed through a web browser by typing a URL or using a Java applet similar to the one in GroovyBar which is part of Joomla.
