I downloaded the latest NAV 2004 of Kazaa Lite K++ from some Users, extract it and while to trying to install it tell me I need latest Internet Explorer?

Where to get it? I know microsoft.com - is there any direct link?

I should add the IE is not very stable on my system, but NAV 2003 is working fine.
Does I need NAV 2004 or can I stay at 2003, if I update my virus definitions?

What are the differences between 2003 and 2004?

Because it seems that NAV 2003 can also update latest virus definitions as it did today.

Get yourself Internet Explorer 6

I'm using NAV 2003 (& Systemworks 2003) and it's updating fine and everything else is OK.

When you update your IE, install NAV 2004 and let me know if it's good, maybe I'll download it too.

You have to update IE? That's friggin weak. I don't trust Norton's software anymore. Well, I don't trust their 2004 line. Internet Security 2004 is causing EVERYONE I hear from problems.

Also, NAV's engine is apparently weak. I catch waaay more viruses with AVG and it's not a resource hog or obtrusive.

I dont think they make you update. I am a little paranoid too of what you downloaded. Check your system.

You are fine even with 2003 just keep your virus definitions uploaded.

Hello!

The reason that NAV are asking you or requiring you to update is not to be mean it is actually to be nice. IE 5 is leaking like a troll and your system is highly vulnerable even with NAV 2004 installed when usin IE 5. The latest i think is 6.1 much safer to use!. I would advice to stay away from the 5 versions.

The large .rar files on Kazaa that I found when looking for Nav 2004 PRO where corrupted. You should have downloaded the 49MB large .zip file that Formula1 has posted a Sig2Dat link for in the verified section!. It works like a charm on my system it inlcudes the neccessary keygen for both the CD label key and activation code and also be sure that yu are diconnected from the Internet while installing and activating otherwise you might get busted as instructed in the read me files that are also included for the keygen in the download!.

Kazaa lite is no longer good for softwares. Use Bittorent. For mp3's still klite is good.

Hello!

There is some viruses out there that can turn off NAV 2003 so even with updated virus definitions you might not be safe it is adviceable to update to NAV 2004.

and the viruses out there can infect 2004 as well ;)
its a matter of keeping updated and using sense about your net habits
not neccesarily which version you use
@internet.news - if 2003 is still runnin good, id say keep it for now
since the 04 is messin up, or try AVG, heard good things bout it


edit, just got some bad news about AVG
look here (http://www.virusbtn.com/vb100/archives/products.xml) for some av test results :o
its under grisoft link for those who dont know :)

Hello&#33;

Increase you chances for finding the file by using the search more option and set the time to a very high value like 100 mins and you will get kicked of different Supernodes. Also use KaZuperNodes 1.4.6 and reguraly change Supernode. This way you maximise the chance of finding what you want&#33;.

There was a antivirus test lately on a dutch tech site and it seems that AVG didn&#39;t notice 4 of the 5 trojans....

Symantec AntiVirus Corporate Edition is the best :D

Don&#39;t confuse an anti-trojan with a antivirus.Even the best antivirus in the world can&#39;t find some trojans, personally i use an antivirus and an anti-trojan.
