RN's New K++ Gets Recognition

[CornerPocket]

B)
A new version of "Kazaa Lite," free software that provides access to the service operated by Sharman Networks Ltd., can prevent anyone from listing all music files on an individual's machine and purports to block scans from Internet addresses believed to be associated with the RIAA.

Do you guys think all this exposure is good for K-Lite?
It draws a lot of attention to us, who are kind of an "organized crime family". :lol:

agreed.

even with these "new" features, klite is still a joke security wise unfortunately. Doesnt mean I dont use it... but its just no where near being semi secure.

Already p2p apps with proxy's, encryption, etc are starting to pop up, and other new technologies should be more wide spread soon here.

With the RIAA and their lawsuits, p2p has dropped considerably since that announcement. People are worried, unfortunately, as there is strength in numbers.

Its too bad those "secure" P2Ps have very few users and files.

And particularly proxys, the speedloss can be a HUGE one.

We can forget any p2p program to add a really good security measure for awhile at least because it&#39;s kinda counter to their nature: share with anyone. For instance, Bit Torrent with its forced sharing method is among the fastest ways to download something (if the torrent is &#39;fresh&#39; and well seeded) -- but it&#39;s the easiest of all to get an ip list of other users on...
