    To sum up simply, Kazaa was one of the 'founding fathers' of modern p2p software. A few years ago it was used by everyone, or clones of it on the fastrack network. This was when it's main rivals were morpheus and grokster, which were on the gnutella network (pretty sure, correct me if I am wrong). It was pretty much the new napster, when everyone went back to filesharing after it was shut down. It was great until 90% of the files were fakes planted by the record companies. Kazaa is pretty much washed up now, and it's full of spyware/adware and crap. For a long time I used K++ (lite), which was the stripped down version (that is technically illegal, but who cares).

    not really, if anything, it was the beginning of the end of the napster style of p2p, and helped in the rise of bittorrent. Because it sucked so bad.
