Ok, so I took everyone's advice in here and I still can't get it to connect. I was trying to do it with 2.4.3 but I changed back to 2.4.0 and I'm still having problems. Maybe its that I'm a noob but I dont see a place to put my IP in the K++ options menu. Can someone help me out? Is there a patch that will fix this cennection problem for me?

what is your problem, every body's problem is not the same exact thing, if you read this whole thread you will see that different things worked for different people,

give me info, where are you?? how do you connect??? give me alot of info

this is not a problem with klite to have a patch for, this is a problem with your enviroment

and versions of klite have nothing to do with speed or connection, go back to 2.4.3

I'm in Indiana. I use Comcast Cable Internet and I was recently running Norton Internet Security 2003 until my subscription expired. My Kazaa hasn't been working for about a month, maybe two. At first I thought maybe I just got the boot because of the whole RIAA thing but then I asked around and people were still using it. I tried to get it working and i read through almost all of these connection issues people have one here and none of them seem to be the same. Or, they are similar and I just don't know it. Back when my Kazaa stopped working I think I was using version 2.1.0 of Klite then I updated to 2.4.3 and still had the connection problem. I tried the port and I.P. thing but I dont know if i did it right. Everytime I try to detect a supernode it comes up all 0's except the last 3 or 4 digits.

Hi All,

I have read the numrous posts and have tried everything to try and get kazaa working.

I have windows xp and kazaa lite version 2.4.1

Kazaa lite is having trouble connecting.

My supernodes window says my ip address and port is : 213.52.129.165:1865

However when using the help page indicated http://www.sbbs.com/internet/myipaddress.html

I get an internet ip address of: 213.52.170.71

Whichever one I use I just can not get Kazaa to connect. It used to work but suddenly just stopped working. I have tried rolling back to different versions, have even tried the latest version but to no avail.

I am getting very close to wiping my hard drive and starting again!!

Can anyone help as I have been trying to sort this out for hours now.

I downloaded the latest kazaa lite here. Version 243. It connects but still is not downloading anything. It will try to and starts at 20 kbps. Then it quickly drops off to 10 then 5 then nothing. This has never happened to me before. What the heck is going on? Thanks for any and all help. &nbsp;

this thread is about klite itself not connectiong

your download speed depends on the # of sources for it and their upload speed, anddon&#39;t be fooled by whatyou see in the search window they are not an indication of who is available for connection so change supernodes to see if you get lucky, also use localized supernodes, also try changing ports, and lower your upload bandwidth,remove the no ip sources from your dat files and see if it helps [/b][/quote]
I am having the SAME problem here. I am connected but the speed just drops off imediatly&#33; I can still upload stuff but I can&#39;t downoad a thing&#33; HELP&#33;

[MUSLEMAN]

@ goodmercutio it could be your file and its sources, first run a test

please do a test,search for van halen’s right now and wait untill you get 30 or more sources and then pick for download and tell me what you get make sure your traffic is paused or clean

HI fellas&#33;

I am probably one of the few females on this forum. Hopefully, you can help me. I&#39;ve read the long list of your suggestions, and did my best to apply these to my problem. However, Kazaa STILL doesn&#39;t work. But I&#39;ll start from the beginning.

My Kazaa 2.4.3 was pretty slow working before so I figured if I&#39;d re-install it, or, even better (silly me), install the adware-spyware-hated-kazaa. Despite the efforts, not only did&#39;t I get back my snail Kazaa but it seized working all together *surprise-surprise*.

Here is how it looks at the moment: KaZuperNodes:
Current Connection: KaZaa IPort - my IP plus 2463 (however, Supernode IPort goes blank if I fill in the given value). Also, my refresh button is for some mysterious reason blinking...
New Supernode: IP Port - my IP plus 2463
It does recognize my nickname and that I have a supernode status (??).
Also, there is this white button with a red cross on it - "if your Kazaa still does not connect"....and when I press it - I get a whole list of 0.0000 IPs from US...

How long should the list of IPs be anyway? Should it only be my own IP plus the port?

I am really confused here, guys. I would really appreciate any kind of help since I have over 2 GB of .dat files

Best wishes,
N.
