My Shared Folder

[bootylicious]

Can anyone tell me why my traffic window constantly show 8 files being shared when I only have 5...I already double checked everything (ten times over) as well as uninstalling and reinstalling and still no luck. Could there be hidden files or something?:frusty:

Any suggestions? (I use CleanKMD 2.44)
Thanks!!

something to do with hidden files.
Nothing to worry about i think.(not sure)
Somebody here will probably be able to tell you everything about it.

you have hidden files in your shared folder
tools>folder options>view> here check the box for ?show hidden files?then uncheck the box that
says ?hide protected operating system files (recommended)
bottom line: its normall nothing to worry about

it also counts your playlist files. (*.kpl) and they're not shown on the total in the "my kazaa" view total.

I think u might be on to something here. I did have a playlist but I transfered it over to MY MUSIC FOLDER on my hard drive. The strangest thing about this though is that I had about 10-15 songs in the playlist, does each playlist count as one? Just a thought&#33; <_<

[Vargas]

well each playlist file would only count as 1 file
open your download folder with explorer and see if you have any .kpl files, i&#39;m not sure but the version you have might or might not count "now playing" as one too. . .

if you want to see what youre sharing just open IE to http://127.0.0.1:1214/
only replace 1214 with the port you have kazaa configured to in "tools>options>firewall" and you will see what your shares.

BTW i think you should share MORE then a piddily 5 files :angry:
unless theyre new releases B)

If i enter your IP and your port will i see what you are sharing? :unsure:

i had a similar problem, it could just be the folder...like if you use the My Documents folder theres a .db & .ini file you can only see in real DOS mode, &#39;Showing All Files&#39; don&#39;t show em & you cant see em at all on 2k/xp but theyre there

theres also a few other windows folders that do this ;)

yes, IF you knew my IP and port, and IF i have browse shares enabled, or i&#39;m running iMesh or older versions of kazaa that don&#39;t block browse by remote.
yeah you can even download from it, with IE, if the user has open slots.
hell i ran a mini website with kazaa as the server already :ph34r:

You were definitely right on the money my friend, my Nero File browser showed the additional files as hidden and I deleted them. They were files with the same ext. you mentioned above. Thanks a lot, appreciate the help&#33; :)
