KaZaA 1p71 available now
if you want it get it from the official download site www.kazaa.com
my advice to you is don't get it. This is the official end of KaZaA...i predict its death today as a result of its actions its going down just like has been reported by ethen in another thread, "like a two-dollah ho" Last edited by butterfly_kisses : 30-05-02 at 07:09 PM. |

Believe it or not, I'm going to download it and track the install with InCtrl5. Just out of curiosity.

Anyway, can you post the version changes? I couldn't find them on the kazaa.com site. It should be in a textfile in the Kazaa folder. |

also, re the altnet (which, mind you, is completely different thing than BDE installer/projector): i'm sure i would sound cheesy if i told you that it really does not deserve the terrible publicity it has received. but really: all altnet does is a) fetch a file list from altnet server, and b) based on that list, insert "paid results" into search results list (not unlike paid keywords on google). that said, after the BDE fiasco, i don't blame anyone for being suspicious -- just having programmed a considerble chunk of altnet code, i find it unfortunate that the system is being dragged down by (business) ties to BDE. - jaan |

I thought you were a programmer for KaZaA.
They got you working as a PR guy too now? |

I am using version 1.70 of kazaa without bde and with a dummy cd_clint.dll and i am noticing irregular port calls by kazaa to about 20 to 30 different ip address. One port is port 0...some are in the 3000 range and one of them tried to get my Netbios name. Now since i don't have cydoor installed i know its not trying to download advertisements and since i don't have bde installed it in theory shouldn't be trying to download that file list from the altnet server and anyway the altnet server is clearly identified heck its gone by numerous names in the past like www.kazaa.com desktop.kazaa.com forum.kazaa.com alpha.kazaa.com, etcetera but these ip's are all different and are not associated in anyway with the ip address listed above in the picture from the Atguard 3.22 firewall warning. so what does kazaa (the executable its self) try to connect to so many non-standard ip addresses using so many different ports. if you want a list of the ip addresses and port numbers i can provide those to you. |

here is another thing to try...while you are connected to kazaa either with or without downloading of having anything paused (like an incomplete download) connect to the internet (without doing a search or downloading) now disconnect from the internet (if you are on cable or dsl i'm not sure how you'd do this maybe unplug the rj-45 from your NiC?) anyways i use dial-up networking so all i have to do is click disconnect then i start get a rash (two or three) irregular port calls by kazaa. happens almost everytime i do this until i block the approximate 3 to 6 ip's that it tries to connect to. I've notice similiarities with these exact same ip's showing up in older versions (1.51 and up) it might be interesting for other users to post the ip's that are connected or that are attempted to connect to by kazaa when you disconnect from the internet in the manner above just to see if its standard among all users and not just some anomally i am experiencing myself. If anyone notices or has other ip addresses and or irregular port calls please post them to this thread,,,,maybe we can look for similiarities and find our wheher or not there is something "sneaky" going on here or not. |

harb,
i'm not sure i can help you there -- i haven't programmed the actual "down to the metal" bits of fasttrack stack. a couple of things you might try though to narrow the source: 1. do the connection attempts persist if you do file->disconnect first, 2. do they persist if you cancel all your pending downloads and uploads, and 3. are they actual TCP connection attempts or just UDP packets being sent? - jaan |

if i will ever be able to rekindle enough interest to do any more proper research...although before losing interest i had plans for another grand tutorial called the rosetta stone in which i show other programmers how to decipher some of the encryption used by kazaa...i hope that my desire for this returns but if it doesn't it was nice speaking to you and i wish you and all the others well in here. Sincerely, -Harby |
