Not to be negative, but I stopped using Kazaa a long time ago, and I won't start using it again. The FastTrack network is too FULL of bullshit viruses and anti-P2P songs.

IRC is way better. Kazaa is a waste of time

I actually still use KaZaA, only on rare occations, as with Protowall (With Anti-P2P portranges blocked) and MP3Shield running, you get perfect songs almost all the time.

But, for whole albums, use IRC and Packetnews.com or Ircspy.com (both excellent IRC search engines) :)

if u use plain kazaa....please....kill your self u f*cking moron

Wow. Harsh, but holds some truth. :)

i only use BitTorrent and eDonkey. never tried IRC, dont really understand how to use it. wish i did though, edonkey is so slow

Please don't use KaZaa it is horrible for your PC. People who use the Fast-Track network use KaZaa lite K++ 2.4.3 or a varient of this wonderfully hacked version of KaZaa that includes great programs and no adware / spyware! Sadly, it isn't being developed or distributed anymore :(

But you can still find older versions of k-lite++ if you do a search. One can be found in the g4/tech tv archives.

@everyone who flamed my
"I still use Kazaa" I actually use CleanKMD, a hacked version of the new KaZaA.

To find KaZaa lite K++ 2.4.3 just look for it in another Kazaa lite older version of Kazaa-lite also try over the IRC you may find it there too
and finally e-mule and e-donkey sucks they're just a pice of bullshit plus they say kazaa is full of viruses well excpect the same or worse about those progmas
P2p king forever will always be kazaa-lite
Maria =)

E-mule and programs like it are designed to download large files not mp3s and pics and stuff. With that said, it does seem that E-mule is a little lopsided when it comes to uploading and downloading (more uploading than downloading, it makes you wait?).

No matter what version of kazaa is being used, I hope everyone knows about the RIAA and what they are doing to P2P users that use the Fast-Track network (Crap files, court cases, ect.). There are a couple of new P2P networks in-development that will stop the RIAA dead in there tracks but they need the P2P communities support.

is k-lite still using the sig2dat protocol? if it is, then no way am i using it

if you wanna get a whole album with no bs- irc is the way to go, but if your looking for rare stuff, or singles K+++ is the ultimate program for individual files.

Getting your opinion across is fine, but you could at least try to sound like a civilized person when doing so.

I find WinMX to be by-far the best program for downloading singles.

If I remember correctly, KaZaA and WinMX share the same network...

never tried WinMX, but heard good things about it. Is it free of spyware and adware?

NO they don't use the same network or the same protocols.

just downloaded and installed WinMX. Finished setting up the ports, ran the app for the first time, and it locks up when I go into settings, two times in a row. What gives? Its the new 3.53 version. Kazaa sucks, but I don't ever remember it locking up on me....

Thanks for correcting me, WinMX uses the OpenNap Network.
NOT Fasttrack

My sister uses something called SoulSeek, and it looks fine for her... I like to use ED2k or DC++. If i really can't find what i'm looking for, i use KLR (Kazaa Lite Resurrection). I've tried Bittorrent, but my connection is too slow to really appreciate it.

yep i use soulseek for music too

very quick and a hell of alot of songs on there, no viruses just music
