Does KaZaA suck?

[ATLien247]

Or is it just me?

I swear, I have yet to be able to download anything in it's entirety. And most of the time I'm endlessly put in queue... :|

<< Or is it just me? >>


Yeah it actually is you that sucks.










j/k. I hate Kazaa and it does suck.

 

[LordSnailz]

ditto - back to mirc for me.

 

[ILikeSprite]

Kazaa is great..... for warez. I use WinMX for all my mp3 needs.

 

[Utterman]

Well, I am using KaZaA Lite... I just meant KazAa in general.

 

[Pocatello]

Kazaa lite is great, until you want to download something, it's still Kazaa.

I can't figure out how to share files. I once got seven files to share, but the next thime I started the program they were gone and I was back to sharing zero files. I don't like to download if I don't have anything to offer too.

 

[Utterman]

Goto Tools, Options, then select the traffic tab. There should be a check to disable sharing.

 

[Mikelh]

All spyware sucks!

If you have Kazaa, run a search on the hard drive for "pokemon". You'll be surprised what you find. Now, try to delete it! You can only delete it in the registry editor.

I get a ton of Remotely Queues as well. I'm not sure if that's a good thing or a bad thing, like a ton of people are leeching files so I'm put in line, or a ton of people simply don't want to give up their upload bandwidth so they don't allow it.

 

[Moonbeam]

Utterman, whether checked or unchecked I still can't share. Seems the program is looking in E: and that's a cd drive.

I have Kazaa and no pokemon.

I have not had any problems with Kazaa Lite. I can share files and download fine. The first time I shared a directory it did take some time and a couple restarts of Kazaa to get it to recognize the files but then it was no problem. Also, the downloads are a lot faster than the old Morpheus. I usually get around 100KB/s or so and not too many Remotely Queued files.

 

[Nefrodite]

it seems to lower system stability

 

[austin316]

no, you suck. in all seriousness though, with Kazaa lite, I get speeds of over 70kbs with a shared connection of only 520kbs between 4 pcs.

 

[Geekbabe]

Kazaa stinks, even with the hacks it ended up hosing a perfectly stable Win2k install, I ended up having to restore an image and for all the trouble didn't really end up getting anything.

 

[GoodToGo]

I cant dl anything from KaZaA at all. On another note, the Morpheus preview edition sux as well!

 

[vegetation]

I have about 30 "more sources needed" in process. None have been downloading the past 2 days I've been running it. Only one file was completed. Something is definitely wrong here, I never had this noncompleted files with Morpheus.

 

[Renob]

No pokemon for me and I too have Kazaa and love it. I most of the time have 6 to 8 DL going at the same time.

 

[SmirnoffIsTasty]

Kazaa is a great tool for downloading songs,movies, etc... Like any tool, if you don't know how to use it, you may think it sucks.

 

[cjchaps]

I also get a ton of those "more resources' and "remotely queued" things! What's up with that?

 

[Stifko]

I get these .dat files when I want mp3s. How do I turn them into mp3s?

 

[bozo1]

<< I also get a ton of those "more resources' and "remotely queued" things! What's up with that? >>


More resources is a programming bug. Remotely queued just means that you are trying to suck from someone who already has the maximum number of people sucking from him already according to how he has his preferences setup. That's not Kazaa's fault.

Ever since Morpheus got separated from the network, KaZaA does not have very much to offer.

I suggest that you try Gnucleus -- it is a great open-source client for the Gnutella network. It's much better than KaZaA and the Gnutella network has much more stuff to offer, especially now that all Morpheus users have been moved to this network.

I love it, because I can find (and download successfully) anything I want.
