Default Anyone used this software ?

After an experiance with KazaLite i'm looking for blocking software. I kept seeing where my 'puter was accesing the internet on programs I didn't recognize.....found out it was Kaza and that it opens your computer up for everyone to use !!! Yes, I have a Norton firewall with a router but it still didn't block. It took forever to clean ny PC of Kaza !!!! Wardey

Hey Wardey

I don't have the answer to your question but was wondering what happened to your wall mounted aquarium? Is it finished and stocked?

Looks great. Don't forget photos after it's populated with fish and toys.

Kazaa is a site where you can download music while cheating the writers and musicians out of their well earned royalties.

Kazza is a file sharing site like napster was. My son put me on it to download some football songs for last weeks Buc's game but I did not know that the other users can get into my computer. Pretty scary stuff. You almost have to disconnect the cable line to stay safe anymore. I had to go into DOS and deleat the file to remove it from my computer. Windows could not deleat the program!!!

If you want to eliminate "spyware" and "scumware", I have found Adaware to work very well. It is free and is available at this website:

http://www.lavasoftusa.com/

My son was home from college over the holidays and visited numerous sites that I wished he hadn't on my computer. I noticed at dramatic decrease in performance and checked the history file and saw where he had been. Then I just ran adaware and it recognized and eliminated 27 different spyware programs and my performance was back to normal. I run Windows XP home addition and have had no problems with it.

For what it's worth the only files that you share with other users are the media files that you choose to share. They would not get vital info or operating system access. Kind of a generic folder sharing that is non evasive to your system.
Is it worth all the other headaches (pop ups) and performance issues everyone has a different opinion on this! not to mention that it stealing from the artists.
With that said I have to go need to download another song (just kidding)
