kazaa suprises

I new kazza is a huge ball of malware but this is crazy

Dur...even if you arent very computer savvy, you should know that you should never download programs off kazaa. i'm actually suprised that percent isnt higher. maybe they should just turn off the program search tab in the next version. That is, if there is a next versiom ;)

That can be through any p2p file sharing system. Thats the risk people take by downloading files.

kazza is the best mp3 shareware out there....... if ur good at beatin codes this is not a problem ..or good at code blockin ..but tx 4 the notes ..one!!!!!!!!!!!

or Imesh, or Limewire or Bearshare or K-lite K++ or...dare i say? Earthstation? Speaking of earthstation, why doesnt someone download it and see if the vulnerability is still there?

good idea slick, tx for doing the experiment, you can post the results later on. Anyone heard of AudioGalaxy?, i used it back in 2002 i think, best audio program ever.everrrrrr. I heard it's out again but now you have to pay though.

ok, so i downloaded it, and i have the source to the exploit but i just cant get the damn thing to compile. Anybody else wanna take a stab at it while i try to get this thing compiled?

KaaZa is **** when it comes to mp3s'... Ever try Soulseek?

KLite-K++ has never given me any troubles... Of course I never download programs, so I wouldn't know... But for Mp3's it works fine for my needs...
