Kazaa
 

Can any one recommend a good softwear to download music of the internet
heard about kazaa any comments good or bad
thanks :shrug:

Re: Kazaa
 

Avoid kazaa like the plague unless you have full Anti-virus, Firewalls up the kazoo, and can fit at least two extra strength condoms to your modem. :)

WinMX suffers the same but perhaps not quite as bad but watch out for hoax and wrongly named files too.

Re: Kazaa
 

Kazaa Lite is good if you can still find it, no spyware, ads etc.
I agree if getting software, mostly it is in zip files and some, only some that I have encountered, have viruses.
Saying that, I got MS Office XP and WinXP from there:p

I use Ares,the only prop is they are not a lot of people on it yet
You can find it at "softgap.com"

Re: Kazaa
 

i recommend emule :)

Re: Kazaa
 

soulseek is good

Re: Kazaa
 

winmx is also a good program

www.winmx.com

Re: Kazaa
 

huge queues though

Re: Kazaa
 

i never have a problem, downloads are usally instant or a few people ahead of me which does not take long to clear

if a queue is longer i wait for a bit and it starts downloading if you search for better sources you can get your stuff quick on there

Re: Kazaa
 

I've found Shareaza to be really good for downloading MP3's

Re: Kazaa
 

Hi ive found a site which has top 10 download programs may be usefull

:rudo: :rudo:

Re: Kazaa
 

BitTorrent and IRC do me fine...

Re: Kazaa
 

Main thing to watch on all these download programs is they are nearly always full of spyware stuff like gator etc.

This will inevitably cause slugish performance on the PC after a short while so you will need to run adaware or similar progs to clean the system even more than usual. :)

Re: Kazaa
 

Limewires pretty good, and it doesnt seem to have any spyware.

Re: Kazaa
 

i can without reservation recommend "blubster"

Re: Kazaa
 

Link??? :D

Re: Kazaa
 

DC++ is my fave, though its a little less automated than al the others I prefer it. Only downside is that you normally need to share a far bit of Data to get anywhere.

Re: Kazaa
 

yeh DC is used by "certain people" on the intranet at uni...

oops ive said too much :erm:

:notopic: but if the terms and conditions of use of the internet service arent posted anywhere then how do they go about enforcing stuff? ;)

Re: Kazaa
 

*cough* Er just maybe it is not in their (the ISP's) interests to do so.

I can't help wondering just how slow the growth in BB would be if it were not for its use in P2P filesharing and nobody will ever convince me that isn't a large factor in the non-enforcement.

That said I think people might be wise not to shout too loudly on here what they actually do or don't do via their NTL connection as the Net has ears just like some walls do. :)
