Since a few days, well at least a week (or more, who really cares!... I've been reading dozens of topics about Kazaa being really slow lately, and everyone blaming it on the new "build 3". I've decided to sacrifice myself and "downgrade" ( yes, the opposite of "upgrade")to a previous build, all in the interest of science.
Who knows what might happen? Faster downloads? Complete waste of time?
The answer next week, same bat-channel!

i think the new build is slower because more newbies use it, and those n00bs they're crazy - they complain about anything

The funny thing is, i did the same today! I installed the 1.7 version (with the annoying upgrade NAG innnit)
But the movie i was downloading still sucked big time on the speed section!
It's not the builds or versions.., it the complete network that sucks!
What puzzles me is, when i'm downloading something, and start a new (same file) download, the speed go's to
the max for about 3,500mb and than stops and reconnects with a very LOW speed!
Like 0.09kb or something like that!Why doesn't the incomplete older download file connect at such a MAX speed???
There is just something wrong with the NEW files!
All the old movies, software download really fast, it's just the new files..
Ah well..

It is with great sadness I have to report the failure of the experiment: the older version wouldn't let me access the message board anymore! I had to terminate it after only 2 hours...
Maybe some day, someone will find the solution to our problem, unfortunately, it won't be me, since after this utter failure, I retire from the world of science... ( but not from this board!)

my results just in: build 3 is NOT slower than build 2, the only difference is the start page looks nicerwould you believe it?

Being a newbie myself. (Less than a week.) I've done a lot of checking before sniveling and changing supernodes helps a lot. (IMO) I'm changing around and experimenting with different ones and it does make a difference.
