Recomendations other than KaZaA
 

Does any one know of any problems or other media players that perform better than Kazaa, cuz i downloaded it about 2 weeks ago, and usually movies dont play so good on my crappy computer, but kazaa plays them crisp and clear.

weird... windows media player, apple quicktmie, realplayer and divx are the 4 which come to mind

Re: Recomendations other than KaZaA
 

yeah but wouldnt you agree that Kazaa does have an overall better meaning, as well as options.  BTW, do u know of any know flaws known to be associated with Kazaa, if so please notify me, thx.

Be carefull with Kazaa it just ain't spyware it's part of a distributed network computing.  Tey've piggybacked software into there install for a long time and didn't tell anyone  They just turned the network on for some computers and are now using those computers to serve up 3D web adds.  Isn't it ironic that they use home users computers to serve up the one thing we get tired of.  Any way http://www.lavasoftusa.com/ has the software to clean it out more than likely but it may leave it unusable.  Currently I use freewire to download stuff and Divx Lunacy to play clips.  No known spyware on either.

Man, you sure do have a point there.  Those freakin' adds at the bottom of my screen sure do get annoying.  There's no way of getting rid of them....Yet another flaw associated with KaZaA is that you must be online to use it, huh!   I never thought about that.  However, i am having second thoughts on it.  I am also surpirsed with the brand new media play that just came out called Fusion Media Player.  I gotta admit, it has beautiful sound control and a catchy look to it.  Ive only used it for audio pieces though, so...

If you use adaware to remove cd_clint.dll, kazaa will not work.

put the .dll in %root%\%windir%\system

make sure kazaa is already shut down

then start it up, and you will notice no banner ad in the lower left corner. Although you will get pop-up's now and then

Re: Recomendations other than KaZaA
 

cool thanks, yeah i got a program for those stupid pop-ups!  thx again!

Morpheus Preview Edition is pretty nice.  I connects to the gnutella networks, which gives you access to everyone using *nutella, morpheus, limewire, and bearshare.  The only gripe I have is that it has a lot of pop-ups. If you leave it on over night you get a screen full of them :(
