Yes, it is very sad. But thats life. Good things exist, then are destroyed by the people not benifiting from it. It happens everywhere, everyday, and over everything. What else is there to say?

Knight Templar · **Reply #2 on:** September 16, 2002, 08:56:01 pm

how sad.

try xolox, it's austrailian* and you'll never go back... unless you are looking for porn... then you want Bearshare.

* = i can't actually back that up

Hint: it's five letters long, starts in K and ends in A and for some reason is usually written in bizarely alternating case.

Dude KaZaA is the most pathetic form of virus destributing P2P program out. Now WinMX on the other hand...

diamondgeezer · **Reply #8 on:** September 16, 2002, 09:36:11 pm

I have both operating most of the time. WinMX doen't seem to have a quater of Kazaa's content, but it does have a superb interface and distinct lack of addies and spyware.

Admiral LSD · **Reply #9 on:** September 17, 2002, 12:53:54 am

WinMX's interface superb? What are you on? That has the worst interface of any P2P program out there (save maybe Audiogalaxy...).

Knight Templar · **Reply #10 on:** September 17, 2002, 01:09:18 am

A BIG *AUSSIE* COUGH

* once again i cannot realisticly back that statement up at the moment.

What? It's simple to read information on search returns, and there's enough options and buttons to keep anyone happy. However, one complaint is that too many option buttons are aquezed into too small a space, and you don't get the information about resolution and such that you get with Kazaa. Otherwise, its a pleasure to work with, if it has the content you want...

why is that?

also, multiple source downloading, automatic alternate finder, chat, hotlist functions, make it all worthwhile.

KaZaA does pretty much all of that without having a dogs breakfast for an interface.

an0n · **Reply #16 on:** September 17, 2002, 11:56:32 am

What's the point in having KaZaA if there aren't any spy-ware packets to trace back to the server (and subsequently, no 'unethical' activities to partake of)?

Stealth · **Reply #17 on:** September 17, 2002, 12:31:30 pm

lol an0n

napster's old... i uninstalled it in 2000.

i've used WinMX since then

Star Dragon · **Reply #18 on:** September 17, 2002, 12:36:02 pm

Though the sale waws blocked... That company should get innovative and just make a clone and call it "Snatchster!"

(Crawls back into the net)...

Not quite. Run Adaware and you'll find one still there.
