    Now then people, Ive tried loadsa versions of Kazaa. And cant get em to connect. The only one that i can get to connect is Klite (which runs a shield on setup to stop original Kazaa installing Adware. It still effing does though its called traffic.core.) Anyway im rambling.Oh yeah, tried updating the snodes with snodes.reg hack and waited for an hour, still no connection. Using XP service pack 2./ Maceffe firewall (allowed full access on exes etc in kazaa directory). A while ago i had the same probs with kazaa k++ 2.4. I got it to connect by updating the HOSTS file in windows/system??? something like that. Anyone heard of this? I downloaded an updated Hosts file. If anyone knows of this and got a link or anything else apart from not using Kazaa then id be grateful to hear about it.
    Cheers Peeps!

    It really is a good idea to convince him to use something else. The authorities use kazaa to identify filesharers because its full of people like your dad who dont know about using other things. Its also full of fake files and viruses and has been for ages. If you can convince him to use something else you really should

    well, K-Lite is still a brill program for pr0n and sometimes old time music... even the newer music is pretty easy to find if you watch for the right users sharing (as in - dont go for a file with 349857398765 users sharing, and not a file with 33343435 bandwidth.... if you watch that then your ok)...


    K-Lite is still pretty useful you know

    Tell him the truth Kazaa is full of trojans ,spyware , and virus . Then setup Limewire and show the old fart how easy it is to use .
