unfortunately, Kazaa Lite's days are numbered. Kazaa has successfully gotten all mirror sites have it to stop hosting it on their servers.


also, with the new Kazaa Plus update ... that's the official one, they pay service... Kazaa Lite will slowly stop working on the Kazaa network, because it's based on old versions Kazaa... and because Kazaa Lite users rarely act as supernodes (sort of the point of having it, rather than the regular one), network access for Kazaa Lite users is going to be drying up...

Has anyone used Apple's Limewire? My friend was using it and it seemed great, but his new Mac G5 seems to be having serious problems 3 months later. Anyone ever get viruses from mp3's?

Ya gotta do a virus scan on your shared folder before you open anything you get from peer to peer swapping. Would you just whip it out and stick it in Mayte or Carmen without protecting yourself first??

Sharman Exterminating Kazaa Lite K++
December 6, 2003
Thomas Mennecke





Today, Kazaa Lite K++ fans discovered that virtually every download mirror of this client has been eliminated, including links on its home page. Sharman went to the ISP of every website that hosted Kazaa Lite K++ and ordered its removal via the DMCA. Any mention of Kazaa Lite K++ on the homepage has been ominously replaced with links to eMule, BitTorrent and SoulSeek.

A representative of Sharman Networks spoke to us on the condition of anonymity regarding their current campaign to vanquish Kazaa Lite K++.

Not only has Sharman Networks succeeded in eliminating nearly every major resource of Kazaa Lite K++, they are systematically forcing it off the network.

How you ask?

Recent upgrades to Kazaa clients (2.5 and higher) make them less tolerant with outdated or non official clients such as Kazaa Lite K++. Kazaa Lite is based on a version prior to 2.5, therefore a current supernode will not accept its shares. Although this will cause network headaches in terms of traffic, the client will not be able to participate or download off the main FastTrack network. This will effectively cluster and isolate all modified Kazaa clients from FastTrack.

Well, won't Kazaa Lite clients simply form their own sub-FastTrack network?

Sounds nice, but no. Unfortunately, the developers of Kazaa Lite helped Sharman out tremendously by disabling the supernode function. Very few users who run this client are acting as supernodes. A decentralized P2P network with all clients and no supernodes cannot exist. The effects of this extermination is already taking place, as search times and connection times are deteriorating compared to K+ (the legitimate spyware/adware free version of Kazaa.)

As time progresses, the Kazaa Lite K++ client will become so unusable that its populace will be driven off the network. This latest act from Sharman punctuates a long history of hypocrisy that involves the protection of their own intellectual property rights, yet blatantly ignoring the copyrights of others.

Perhaps RatFaced, a Kazaa Lite K++ forum mod said it best, “Ironic, that Kazaa is complaining about copyright issues, especially as K-Lite ++ stands for everything that Kazaa CLAIMS to stand for... but fails to deliver.”

DietK anyone?

Use WINMX

www.winmx.com

The RIAA and record companies haven't targeted it yet but it's the best damn program out there...I've gotten stuff I've only ever been able to find on vinyl and audiogalaxy from there. Nowhere to be found on Kazaa.
