    Dont you have to pay for Kazza lite?? I know ordinary Kazza is free but the lite version with no adverts etc .....you have to pay for that. Think thats what he means, try the ordinary version first.

    ffs man, you sir have no brain
    Kazaa lite is a reversed engineered version of Kazaa Media Desktop, Sharman Networks are not happy about it AT ALL
    More info here, http://www.chillingeffects.org/dmca512/notice.cgi?NoticeID=861

    Whatever you do, do not install Kazaa Media Desktop, its full of spyware/adware and will affect the performance of your pc quiet abit

    With kazza lite are your downloads less likely to be borked ??

    45% of KaZaA Files Contain Malware

    Not exactly news - just confirmation.

    Isn't the fasttrack network (kazaa) gradually blocking access from Kazaa Lite clients?

    I'm sure I saw it mentioned in an article on a news site,I'll try and dig it up.

    I've definitely noticed a drop in performance (amount of results/amount of results that actually work, speed) etc etc in the last few months.

    I think this is because as each server out there is updated with the new kazaa protocol ( which is blocking kazaa lite) you loose one more server you can connect to.


    Now wheres that article.

    the kazaa lite tk sites are now controled by kazaa (the origionals) So in fact you're just getting kazaa media desktop!!! google for a kazaa lite install file, there are a couple about, if i remember correctly there was a post already about how the .tk kazaalite sites were taken over!

    Yes this is true, they started this after they stopped Kazaa Lite from being made

    shortly after they stopped kazaa lite a group of people got together and have started it up again :D
    They were blocking access by stopping all older kazaa clients getting access to the network old clients include the last build of kazaa lite before it was shutdown
    But that don't matter anymore


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 458 ✭✭shurl


    Yeah, heres some of it :

    Kazaa Lite Shutdown



    Actually, now that I search, i've discovered this,:

    Kazaa Lite NOT stopped

    Seems that if you use a particular version you should be ok!!

    That involves a premium dialler.

    Try this one: kazzalite


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 26,582 ✭✭✭✭Creamy Goodness


    take it from me

    ditch kazaa, kazaa lite and kazaa lite ++

    get soulseek much better and rarely a bogus file


  • Posts: 2,874 ✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    soulseek involves chronic amounts of sharing, so you have to build up your collection before you can get good albums (or so I gather from the kazaalite forums)

    Nope I don't share well only a few files I have.
    But can download what I want.
    Well some users demand you share or they won't but usually it's available from elsewhere.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,987 ✭✭✭✭zAbbo


    Heaven forbid, you`d share anything, gsss


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,751 ✭✭✭Ste-


    I am quite a sharing person but I tend not to leave soulseek open.
    Bt however gets left on at night when I'm downloading and during the day when I'm at work.
    So I do share :p

    I know quite well that if people don't share these networks will cease to exist.

    Anyone tried Kazaa lite Resurrection 2.4.7?

    If you are looking for the latest kazaa lite version prior to forced retirement

    go to http://www.oldversion.com/


  • Moderators, Technology & Internet Moderators, Regional South East Moderators Posts: 28,502 Mod ✭✭✭✭Cabaal


    I have to ask, why the hell are you people still using Kazaa?
    There's much better systems out there for sharing/downloading stuff
    DC++
    Bit Torrent
    etc
    Kazaa is a heap of ****e when compared to any of them


  • Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators Posts: 10,912 Mod ✭✭✭✭Ponster


    Downloaded “Kazaa lite Resurrection 2.4.7” just to see if it worked and was surprised that I got the same results as I had done before with the lite version before it was shut down.
    So for lovers of Kazaa go get it.

    In the meantime I’ll have to agree with some others in saying that it’s a crappy piece of P2P who’s time has come to just die. I like to know what I’m installing on my machine and while the Resurrection version is probably clean anything with ‘kazaa’ in the title gives me shivers J


    When I have to use P2P I stick to bittorrent with is great for getting the latest TV episodes and soulseek for music though soulseek tends to share a lot of tv/movies and appz these days also.

    No, you don’t need to have a lot shared on soulseek though some people will ask you to share if you’re leeching from them (which seems like a fair request doesn’t it?)
    The thing I like about it is that it has a an irc like community so that when you find someone that has the same taste of music that you have it’s much easier to find others with the same tastes viw the chat rooms.

    Would someone who claims to be knowledgable about this please post & then could it be made a sticky?

    Every couple of days there's a post on here asking about kazaa & every time there's smart asses using :rolleyes: about them because they don't know about bit torrent, etc.

    A sticky would at least sort that out, with links to the current hot p2p apps - cause it changes every couple of months. I'd do it myself, but i use bit torrent exclusively, so I don't know much about the others u kids are using these days.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,754 ✭✭✭Big Chief


    the charging sites are a scam, kazaa lite is free, if you see a site trying to charge you for use of kazaa lite then exit immediately...

    Those are just people trying to make a penny from the thick folk out there :p

    i use kazaa lite, and limewire,Until recently i used gnutella.

    however i tried installing bittorrent and i bluescreened my PC, as a result i had to reformat. I am using xp pro so be careful if and how you install it
