is kazza still full of viruses ?

[spevster]

as the title says guys, does it ?

[Phosfor]

Even if it wasn't, who would want to use it?

[spevster]

emm, i suppose you got a point

[OmaRin0]

i advice u to download ARES..

[spevster]

ok thanks

[kklord]

Long story short, tons of viruses and fake files. Dont bother. Get something better like ares, emule or bit torrent. ;)

[GigaGiga]

i advice u to download ARES..
me 2

[.:MHD:.]

use torrents

[crayon1]

bit torrent is safer by far. Can't believe people still use kazaa.....

[shyheim]

I havent used kazza in years, but i do use limewire to find a single song i am looking for, otherwise torrents are the best way to go.

[dodlie]

limewire is great

[spevster]

I use Frostwire which is even better

[SinWithin]

Use emule and bittorent they are the best and ALMOST virus free.

[tailz]

Kazaa isnt that good these days.

[midnight_angel2001uk]

I use Frostwire which is even better

I have never heard of frostwire but then again I havent used kazaa in years either so maybe I just havent kept up to date

[fre3ze]

Dont u guys ever use warez ?

[torrentguru]

well gave up kazaa long time ago..
reasons
1) more files,
2)faster download
3)better hash checks
4)latest things available
if not kazaa irc is another option
and rarely edonkey

[TBE]

Torre,ts are much safer. Never had any problem....

[thewizeard]

Dont u guys ever use warez ?

:O


Unfortunately discussions on such wares, are not allowed here. You could get frozen out, so to speak.

[Dragan777]

better to download ur files from here guys kaza still sucks and u got virus all the time http://www.rapidshare7321.dr.ag/

[b0rG]

emule is ok!

[cualquiera]

its lots of virus. the only reason i use it is for rips, that u cant find con torrents.

[xxtonic]

i thought kazaa, emule and ares but ran on the gnutella network???

[MaaxHimself]

Kazaa runs on FastTrack.

[dave12]

never use kazza its really full of virus and using ares without any problem and get good speeds

[ROFL-LOL]

Kazaa is totally crap. Full of viruses and you can't find anything there.

[bamesah]

Kazaa is full of viruses and it is hard to find something good there

[Flavas125st]

I use limewire too but it always has virues too.

[gunnie123]

It's a long time that i used kazaa, but when i used it i had to reinstall my pc every 3 to 4 months.

[xJohnxSmithx]

wth you guys? any reason your not using bit torrents?

[sleepyy]

I thought kazza was finished years ago i will give it a look now :

[DyNast]

Kazaa has always been full of viruses :|

My suggestion: DO NOT USE KAZAA!

[thewizeard]

Kazaa has always been full of viruses :|

My suggestion: DO NOT USE KAZAA!

What then in you opinion should I use? I really want to look for files...

[DyNast]

You better use BitTorrent and eMule :)

[weesasha]

used kazza back in the day when i was new to filesharing, was quite good (or so I thought) at the time untill i discovered torrents, kazza was full of viruses and mis named files when i was on it ages ago, havent been on it for a few years now

[titofat]

use bittorrent its the best

[arkiebrian]

Why does anybody use Kazaa?

[hvymetal86]

Ditch everything kazaa, fasttrack, limewire, emule, or ares. Bittorrent pwns them all in offerings, quality of offerings, speed, and safety.

[IceTee]

For rare or single files... Emule :P

[Evil9]

I think Kazaa is crap, anytime i see a file with '32' kb i know its a virus.

[tiolewis]

Yes, a lot of spyware ! I hate that ...

Bittorrent is the best

[rivendail]

Dont u guys ever use warez ?

:O


Unfortunately discussions on such wares, are not allowed here. You could get frozen out, so to speak.

what is warez anyway?
and why it isn't allowed here?

[p-h-x]

Ditch everything kazaa, fasttrack, limewire, emule, or ares. Bittorrent pwns them all in offerings, quality of offerings, speed, and safety.I concur. :)

Though eMule used to be a like an old treasure chest.

[carpediemm]

There are much virus, shit and fake files there so I recommend Bittorrent:)

[helsing]

It probably is, because no one can control the files shared there. Unlike private trackers on torrents.

[industrial_one]

If you actually downloaded a virus from FastTrack then you must've been born with half a ballsack... I've used K-Lite for 5 years and not ONCE was I fucktarded enough to actually download what was OBVIOUSLY a virus. They didn't clutter my searches that much either, unless I was searching for software, which is easier to just download from the official website and look crack it manually.

Golden rules:

*.exe is potentially a virus, including .mp3.exe, .avi.exe in case your that fucking dumb.

*.bat is potentially dangerous, as it is executable and can do all kinds of shit, including reformatting your entire comp.

OR

Anything under under 100 KB. Nobody would embed viruses into large files.

Also, if you mainly download music/movies/porn you got nothing to worry about.

Pansies.

[Scavenger]

Yes, a lot of spyware ! I hate that ...

Bittorrent is the best

+1

[Blackbeard]

I used limewire, kazza, and public torrent trackers, got all kinds of spyware and virues and crap, when i went to private bittorrent sites i stop getting so much crap, so newsgroups (wish i had) and bittorrents all the way!

[neriasis]

Luck that i don't Uses in kazza

[JROQuinn]

if ryou just have to use Kazaa, dont download .wmv
or .mov

[snowultra]

use shareaza. it pretty descent

[p-h-x]

Also, if you mainly download music/movies/porn you got nothing to worry about.Still, why take the chance of downloading fakes?

With private BT sites, the chance is really, really low you'll ever get fakes, simply because others will report it. You will get the quality and content you need with faster speeds as you download from multiple sources, depending on the torrent.

[Will4042]

imo bittorrent is the best way to obtain anything...espacially music

[tmo85]

I cant believe people still use kazaa

[LOSTMAN]

use torrents

[Sanka113]

Torrents, my boy, torrents!

[buggyfresh]

Kazaa? lol - someone show the OP the torrent section :)

[deathhiya]

I agree. Torrents are the way to go!

[hoka81]

its slow and full of virusees so !!!

emule is better

[BEGINER]

E-mule?:ermm:...I use torrents and Limewire

[ShadowsServant]

E-mule, kazza, limewire? Guys, downloading on those p2p the best you can hope for is a 56k download speed. I mean even if you have a decent dsl connection you don't reach your connections potential. Torrents is the new generation. You can still download that one song from the album that you desire. You can just select the file to download and deselect the rest that you don't want. Easy as that.

[punki_rach]

Yep and newsgroups speeds are even better than torrents

[matrixjk]

i love BTT of course but you cant find some stuffs there,thats reason why i use ares and limewire too,there are very rare stuffs which cant find anywhere

[jiveshbhatti]

bitorrents better then anything else.

[XtriBit]

I use limewire for certain things. Like if I only want one song or if I don't know the title of something and can go artist search. Other than that it is bittorrent all of the way.

[rocky1234]

Limewire & Ares are good. Thought torrenting is the best.

[grimms]

Kazaa's demise is what brought me to Bittorrent. Haven't used anything else since.

[chookie]

i'm use bearshare is muts faster then limewire

[JorgeJr.&Ancho]

short answer yes, go to newsgroup or BT

[danylover]

use torrents is butter

[DasFox]

I remember the day when kazaa started, back then it was the bomb!

[NorBis]

ok thanks

[XtriBit]

Thanks for the info, I was wondering about kazaa.

[cfm2006]

I havent used kazza in years, but i do use limewire to find a single song i am looking for, otherwise torrents are the best way to go.

[LegendaryU2K]

I thought this program was dead?

And when i was using it, i never had any problems with it that much. It just wasn't like bit torrent, so i stop using it.

[saqib]

I thought this program was dead?

And when i was using it, i never had any problems with it that much. It just wasn't like bit torrent, so i stop using it.

if it is not yet dead , it should b full of viruses then...

[popwar]

if people knew what NOT to download then they wouldnt get virus's. check the file size, title make sure it does have another title mixed in with it when you hover over the filename. if you open it and it says Setup.exe its a trojan all the fuckin time. get a better virus scanner like avast. stops anything that comes in. any p2p program is going ot have virus's even when people experience saying they dont get any. they just have shit scanners.

[tiolewis]

Yes , i think its full of Virues .. I had some troubles in the past

[Theif]

built-in antivirus can help in getting rid of viruses.

[MegLeetch]

i think kazza have much virus all people can camouflage malicious software and send that in kazza ..

[DasFox]

Long story short, tons of viruses and fake files. Dont bother. Get something better like ares, emule or bit torrent. ;)

I second this, tons of crap to deal with...

[Septimus]

Probably..

[C-mos]

not probably ..definitely

[sch0k]

Let the people make the choice self.
Never tried Kaaza, so I'm keeping my fingers closed.
Anyway I recommend Torrents as well.

[BawA]

it was a time when klite was the center of all filesharing and now look its been ages and this thread isnt leaving its spot on subforum :lol:

[Swift]

i don`t care i wouldn`t use it if it where the last thing !

[HighestBiddeR]

I still use it to download songs, you just have to be careful when choosing all the songs to avoid virus

[maverick_andy]

Kazzaaaa is FULL of viruses+spywares+adwares :D

[saulin]

Shit I used to use Kazaa Lite for music. It used to be the best at one point. The best one ever was napster when it was free. Then Audiogalaxy. With those 2 I could find anything, didn't matter what kind of music. Not like today. You need several sources to get music now. There is a lot of Spanish music that can't be found that easy. I don't think I ever got viruses on kazaa when I used it. I only used it for music though.

[directoryxd]

Virues it is always attacked

[Potatis]

Even if KaZaA is full of viruses it really shouldn't be that hard to spot the real files from the infected files. F.e. if the file is in the wrong format, doesn't have a lot of users, weird naming....

[McBride]

ok,thanks

[cinephilia]

i don't understand how can people still use kazaa since there's so many way to fit your needs with other p2p protocols.

[vpg8000]

The Year is 2008 people. Just a reminder.:lol:

[Popov]

it will always be full of virus ;)

[wasaby]

actually i never used kazaa. when i started to download something seriously, i was introduced to torrent world.

[r3volut1onx]

depends on what are u trying to download...

[dragoi92]

I think every torrent has virus,a lot of virus.
But u can use bitorrent and u can find more things that u can find in kazaa

[cinephilia]

I think every torrent has virus,a lot of virus.
But u can use bitorrent and u can find more things that u can find in kazaa
that means nothing...

[dragoi92]

I think every torrent has virus,a lot of virus.
But u can use bitorrent and u can find more things that u can find in kazaa
that means nothing...

Yes.
I never user kazaa
I used only limewire where i download music,only music.
And in bitorrent u can find everything that u want.

[manbearpig]

kazaa is total crap... Anyone who is still using it must STOP using it NOW....... Use emule/torrents/usenet..

I can use limewire.. That's how far I can go with this protocol :)

[cinephilia]

limewire is also "total crap", don't bother with it...

[dragoi92]

Limewire was my first p2p program.

[murder]

Get yourself a private torrent tracker, kazza is full of viruses

[KushBlow]

yes it is :lol:

[bootylicious]

Wow! I can't believe kazaa (in any format) still exist today when there are so many better p2p programs out there and to top it off, people are still using it...unbelievable!

[bumrocks]

Yes I am shocked it is still going too...I wonder why?

I used k-lite along with a couple sites that would give you true release names with the exact size of files...

I used to get so pissed when I would download a movie on dial-up and it be a totally different movie than I thought I was getting...

[Funkin']

I never even got a chance to use it(as I think I remember). I was on Windows at the time, I installed the app, then boom...got nailed with viruses.

So I thought fuck this. I deleted it then cleaned my computer and never tried it again.

I'm seriously surprised to see this site still has this Kazaa board. They should delete it and put Soulseek in its place. :naughty:

[blackcatx]

I havent used kazza in years, but i do use limewire to find a single song i am looking for, otherwise torrents are the best way to go.

same:lol:

[neoapexi]

i dont know what you guys are talking about, kazza is the best and most safest p2p protocol out there. :lol:

i used to use kazza, limewire, morpheus, ... why back when. im gald i got turned on to torrents cause i was getting some nasty malware and whatnot from all that pr0n i was dling.

[jezemy]

Wow! I can't believe kazaa (in any format) still exist today when there are so many better p2p programs out there and to top it off, people are still using it...unbelievable!

Thing is, Kazaa, Limewire and p2p programs like that make it unbearably simple to download files. Just click and it starts. Which is partly the reason for all the viruses. And partly why it is still used. People probably "don't know any better", so to speak.

[rockaa]

I used kazaa a few weeks ago, for 1 song... after trying 3 copies of the song because it was infected with trojans... I stopped.

[james223]

Torrents are so much safer and worth your time to learn.
Once you get into private trackers your set basically.

[Sanka113]

Torrents are pretty much point and click too at the basic level. I think people just use kazaa out of ignorance.

[starbucks]

Torrents are pretty much point and click too at the basic level. I think people just use kazaa out of ignorance.

seriously, click link - file opens in client - download starts.

[sebaHTTP]

On p2p programs like ares or limewire is that sometimes is easier to find ONE single song, or some south american artists that you can't find in torrents.

[TheRatFink]

On p2p programs like ares or limewire is that sometimes is easier to find ONE single song, or some south american artists that you can't find in torrents.
for that there is soulseek...

[murker]

they will always be because its a public p2p client. Stay away from those. Private trackers are far better :)

[franco313]

I still use Limewire and Soulseek for hard to find songs but 80% of the time i use bittorrent(utorrent) what.cd,btjunkie

limewire can be safe if you use commonsense like mp3s that are 3+minutes long but are less than 1mb in size or 10+mb in size are obvious malware.
also a good antivirus program like nod32 and malwarebytes can help.

[walkman79]

Indeed, Kazaa and Gnutella Networks are full of viruses that's why I stopped using those networks and started using private trackers instead. Because private sites have an administration staff who do the job to clean bad files (the metadata or torrent to be precise) and only allow to share the good ones :)

[azzaat]

there is many fake files

[Col. Skillz]

damn, 13 pages? all that needed to be said was 'soulseek'

*just found it the other day w00t*

[georbe]

What kind of question is that?

Of course Kazza is still full of viruses.

And it will never be clean enough to use it.

If you want to blame something, doon't blame the program itself, but the way it works.

^^^ what?

[OldIronTits]

Interesting thread. When you say "Kazaa," do you mean pretty much any ARES and Gnutella netork-based clients? Kazaa, Limewire, Bearshare, KCEasy, and Frostwire all seem the same to me. Out of morbid curiosity, I tried downloading a few songs from those crap networks (using KCEasy and Frostwire). Around 50% of the songs were infected. Screw those networks in the ear.

The mention of AuidoGalaxy made me smile - I remember those days.

Anyone still using WinMX?

Soulseek is extremely handy. Filetopia and DC++ are great alternatives. Torrents are fine (uTorrent ftw). Usenet is fantastic. Rapidshare is great.

Anyone mess with Zultrax?





=============================================================
Do scheme on torrentvault, bitme, & other learning invites.
=============================================================

[GWashington]

I'd give her my egg roll.

[markos]

I think not full, average 50%

[lotuselite]

Kazaa is for noobs and full of fake files. Soulseek is much better.

[Charger]

Soulseek and Limewire a good combination :)

[thewizeard]

What kind of question is that?

Of course Kazza is still full of viruses.

And it will never be clean enough to use it.

If you want to blame something, doon't blame the program itself, but the way it works.
:O What kind of reply is this ; of course Kazza is not full of viruses and blame anything you like! :yup:

[brento]

kazza lite is clean i believe. but why not use limewire if your even thinking of using kazza?

[SunKing]

kazza lite is clean i believe. but why not use limewire if your even thinking of using kazza?

My sentiments exactly. Why use Kazaa when Limewire is the much better alternative.

[Paracetamol]

kazza lite is clean i believe. but why not use limewire if your even thinking of using kazza?

The program might be clean, but the files available are likely not. That is the issue at hand here.

[brento]

kazza lite is clean i believe. but why not use limewire if your even thinking of using kazza?

The program might be clean, but the files available are likely not. That is the issue at hand here.

very true. you have to be EXTREMELY careful when downloading a exe off of kazza

[Chewie]

The program might be clean, but the files available are likely not. That is the issue at hand here.

very true. you have to be EXTREMELY careful when downloading a exe off of kazza
You'd have to be a complete knobhead to download an exe thru Limewire

[gtorde]

not full of but still isn't good

[n00bz0r]

wont bother till what n waffles are alive and kickin ;)
suggest you guys try BT. :yup:

[brotherdoobie]

Kazaa, you old bitch, you.


-bd

[lolwut]

ive never liked kazaa bth

[Amber]

Yeah it had before and still has
