What is up with my software search? I can search for everything else: videos, music, images just fine... but when I try to search for anything on software nothing comes up. I have KLite on two computers and on both nothing comes up when I search for software. I haven't searched for anything specific to where it would be rare so I think it should be working. Is no one else having this problem? I mean, what can it be? It's doing it on both my computers.

I didn't know whether to put this on the software forum (because its dealing only with software) or to put this on the problems forum...

1.) right place

2.) NEVER USE KAZAA FOR SOFTWARE THATS A LAST RESORT

ha well, thats explains enough... what do you recommend? I tried using Ares too but Ares search engine I have found is not that good compared to KLite.

Did you let it do a complete search? Some people become impatient after only letting the search run for 1 or 2 seconds.

BitTorrent... end of story.
Not only is the very basis of it allow files to spread faster, but corrupted files are a rarity. I have yet to see any of the cons that K-Lite had.

Original BT Site (http://bitconjurer.org/BitTorrent/)
BT FAQ (http://btfaq.com/serve/cache/1.html)

Suprnova (http://www.suprnova.org/) has a LOT of software.... and everything else.

Worthy Clients:
ABC (http://pingpong-abc.sourceforge.net/index.html)
Azureus (http://azureus.sourceforge.net/)
TorrentStorm (http://torrentstorm.com/)

There's like a million torrent sites. You'll see that in a pinned topic in the BT section of the forum.

:huh: Serious?
K-lite is good for anything,EXCEPT music&#33;
K-lite is even good for software too,just be smart enough to use verifieds and your&#39;re safe.

You should really get yourself Soulseek if you&#39;re a big musicdl&#39;er.

Well,not saying every musicfile on k-lite is corrupt...but one of the good things about soulseek is that you can find almost everything,if not everything, on there.
It&#39;s deffenitly worth checking out :)

go to Options>Kazaa Lite Options>Filter and remove the check in the box next to "Filter file types that can potentially contain viruses". if it is already unchecked, do a search for "Nero" and see what happens. but its probably that option that is not letting you find software.
