Help! College Student

[mjpfsu03]

I attend a certain college institution and they block out kazaa connection so that you can connect but not dl anything. I have concluded that they have blocked any process that connects to the internet with the work kazaa in it... i know this bc soulseek alows me to dl up to 1000kb/s and if someone knows how to rename the process... please respond

i dont think you can do this, but i am not a developer for kazaa lite so not really sure.

[mjpfsu03]

im not sure if you can unless the program was reprogrammed to do so... but maybe kazaa can make another release where the process it random or atleast teach us how to change it.

try this see if it works, one of the members said that it worked for them


Go where you installed KL and change the name of "KazaaLite.kpp" to something else. Click Start, Run and write regedit. Go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\K++ and change "ApplicationName" to same as "KazaaLite.kpp"s new name. Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\K++ and do the same.

please let us know if MM's thing works.
I think a lot of college people would be very happy with this.

it's always a good idea to make a copy on hardcopy of your registry before ya go messing around in there, just in case ya make a goof.

- Bypasses some .edu networks that are blocking Kazaa.
- Works by running as a local proxy
- Changes the Kazaa network name to confuse firewall software
- Restructures packets to look like HTTP requests
- Bandwith throttle to prevent getting busted for using too much bandwith
