Anyone know how u can automate this tip with a bot? Speed up ect. Maybe it's just me, but a few hours later, the speeds go back down to normal, and you have to repeat the manual searches..
:D :D yeah il try that see if it works
:ph34r: hi paul

Maybe you have it set to max 4 sources.....go to Kazaa lite opitons then search around on those tabs and see what it says for Max sources per file. Also get the new Kazaa lite 2.4.0Quote:

Is your trick can boost 56k modem/dial up system?
When searching multiple times with the auto-search enabled, I have been able to find files that would have never found with a short one minute search.
"I've seen files where the number of users is over 1000. Many times.Quote:

Sorry all, my bad. The numbers of users stored still keep increasing, not stopped at 60 users.
thanks for this very useful tip :D
Good tip thanks.I shall give you a banana for your advise.OOHH AHHH AHHH OHH :P
umm ok but is it just me or does n e one else seems like the speed is actually dropping. maybe i am doing somethin wrong but i dont think so. and what do u guys think aout the record companies trying to sue people who download songs from kazaa. i mean is it illegal or is it safe to download it
Smashin Stuff. Good tips. I'm only on a 64K dial up hi-speed line, so the fastest I can get is about 12kbps. Most times I only get 6 or 8kbps
here is also a KILLER way to speed up your downloads if you have KAZUPERNODES. If the trick that Paul suggested still doesnt boost your speed enough, then try this. go into KAZUPERNODES and select 'extract supernode list from .DAT file'. Choose the .DAT file that is the file that is downloading slowly. Check the response time and status of the list and connect to the supernode that has the lowest number for the response time. Your downloading speed for this file should drastically increase because now you are finding better sources to download from. TRY IT, IT WERKS GREAT!!!
Here are a few tips :
1: Move your computer closer to your phone box.
2: If you can, have your phone company remove the digital splitter from the side of your house. It's possible that the previous owner of the house or the landlord or a previous renter had two phone lines. Sometimes when a phone customer changes from two phone lines back to two, they just leave the digital splitter attached to the house. Get friendly with the phone tech like I did and he took the box off because I complained that my 56k speeds were below what they should be. Ask the phone repair guy/gal to "go back to straight copper". They should know what that means. Your country may vary.
3: Use new phone cords. If your phone cord is super long or cracked with age or otherwise looking beat up, then swap it out. Experiment with the phone cords you have plugged into your modem. Keep track of your net speeds with date and times listed in a text file to compare.
4: Change ISP's if you can. Ask your neighbors what they get for speed.
5: Max your RAM out. (Said before).
6: Hit yourself in the head with a hammer. Brain damage will slow you down so your surfing and downloading will appear faster ! *smile

Getting your neigbors ISP isnt a good because the more people that have the same ISP makes your connection slower....its better to get a small company ISP that not many people have. And DSL is horrible. Cable is the best connection.Quote:

>>> Getting your neigbors ISP isnt a good because the more people that have the same ISP makes your connection slower....its better to get a small company ISP that not many people have.>>>
I was implying that if you try a few other ISP's then you can figure better if the one you currently have is faster. And small companies can be just as congested as big companies. It depends on your city and how far you are from the phone company and it depends on if your cable internet provides good speed for the dollar. And if you ask your neighbor, who has a similar system as yours, what their modem speed is compared to yours, it still might be worth it to use the one they have, if it is much faster than yours for the same price.
>>>And DSL is horrible. Cable is the best connection.>>>
Please explain your theory.

Paul, thanks for the post and all, but the main thing I wanted to say to you is that your Avatar is the dog's balls mate!
Just to add a little - for those wondering about speed boost differences between dial-up (56k,etc) and broadband (dsl, cable, etc).
The (potential) speed boost can so easily be explained thru the "milkshake-thru-a-straw" theory.
The bigger your original straw, the (better) the potential boost when more data streams in.
This should help explain why some people get 50kb+ boost compared to (much) less for dial-up.
Just my 2c.
so...where do i get the milkshake from and what flavour is it?Quote:

I have a question. Lets say im trying to download some anime called azumanga. Now does your advise work for only one specific file or a lot at once? for example, lets say i wanna get episdoe one of azumanga. DO i type in azumanga or azumanga - 1. And then download and then do the autosearch for azumanga - 1 or can it just be azumanga and get other episdoes as well? u know what im saying? like is it specifc files? or can i download a whole series using ur techinque? thanks
;) I have a couple of tips that might help someone out.
1st
I notice when I first installed k-lite++ it would ask what type of network connection do you have? phone, cable & t1. I would always choose fast cable-which is the one that I have. It would always tell me I had 28Kb to share for my uploads but I never reach that amount (apx 24 KB). That's right!!!! The other day I chose t1. Not only did it give me 28 Kb for uploads but at sometimes it would stay constant at 32Kb. It also increase my downloads a little.
2nd
You can play around and tweek your file page, swap file etc. If you have not done this before there is a program called MEM TURBO II IT WILL DO THIS AUTOMATIC FOR YOU. You should have at least
256 MB RAM
I TRIED THE SEARCH FOR MORE SOURCES AND IT WORKS :D FOR BETTER DOWNLOADS. I ALSO TRIED THE ZUPERNODE AND THAT WORKS ALSO B)
<_< OK, if you hotshots can hold back from blasting me for asking a dumb newcomer question... Paul, when you say "Now start the download," do you mean to download all 10 sources (or however many you find)? Also, regarding rare files, does it do any good to keep searching for them if you don't get ANY hits? Thanks.
:DHello All:D
I've noticed that you all speak some wierd language that I don't understand (joke, joke) and am asking anybody to help me on this.
:DGoodbye All:D
WHATS A GOOD NUMBER TO SET YOUR MAX SOURCE PER FILE AT? RIGHT NOW I HAVE MY AT 25
>>>Also, regarding rare files, does it do any good to keep searching for them if you don't get ANY hits? Thanks.>>>
One trick I do is to mispell the song or artist name on purpose. That way the search might turn up some rare song that was also mispelled. For example :
If you searched for "The Tick Theme Song", and found nothing, then try Tiick or Ttick or Tikc or Tcik.
Even short names might be mispelled. Eve could be eeve or evee.

How much RAM do you have ? What speed net connection ? What OS ?

i tried it but i didnt get any faster downloads..
maybe i did something wrong.. :(
now i got it to give me more sources but all of the sources have like 0.3 kbs speed.. can i do anything about that?
I've been using Kazaa like this for months, share loads but get really slow downloads. People with a PL of 0 download off me at 20k, yet me with a PL of 2500 downloads at 0.5k Am I just unlucky?
okie a question on kazupernodes .....one of u suggested that u should connect to the sn which has the least response node bit i tried i didnt get much diff...on th other hand i tried the client with least response time and it worked !! wats the diff brtween client n sn ....which is better .....and aslo is k - dat of any help ....n when ppl say "i added more sources " wat they mean is that the no of users has increased for the file they r downloading rght ??????
yes, you can search whole the time for new sources "unlimited" :)
it is amazing that I've found far away from my area probably some new sources:
I've got for some songs more than 100 sources and for one, I think
it was "My heart will go on" by Celine Dion more than 1000 Sources :) I do not know if all sources were online all the time it just amazed me :)
thanks anyway, david.
When downloading I make AutoSearchMore-Unlimited,means wwhole the time without interruption and SpeedUp (Search for more sources Now) :)
thanky anyway, david :)
this is a great tip
