Ad/Spyware-free Kazaa!? Help!
Does anyone have a link to a ad-free and spyware-free kazaa? Whenever i DL something and let's say I go to bed. Kazaa's pop-ups (only one) come up and it like freezes my DL's, thus getting nowhere in the 7 hour time it has. This has been happening a lot lately, and it's really pissing me off

2 things for you: kazaa lite and hostess, a hosts file management program.

<grumble, grumble>
Why do i have to keep jump starting my active dls with kazaa (kazaa lite 2.0).
I'm constantly babysitting my dls. With the mp3's you really don't notice it but with movies - it's extremely noticeable. I thought the proggie automatically searches for more sources as they become available whether is searching for sources or searching for more sources? Guess not. |

my guess is the client tries to balance the needs of the users with the needs of the network, so instead of constant queries (good for you - bad for network) it has some sort of algorithm that limits searches to save bandwidth. jaan would know more probably but i'll bet it's something like that.
