Kazza lite terminated

They made kazza lite something you have to pay for now. The free versions don't work anymore. Anyone have any info on this? Like how to force kazza lite to work again?

"and it still works, just probably new versions wont be made. "
My kazza lite just flat stopped working. There's supposed to be an underground patch to enable it again, but I haven't found it yet.
I got the diet kaza off www.download.com, and it works. Thanks and all, but it's just silly to have to install spyware just so you can remove and disable it each time you start the application.
They seriously fucked up. Kazza lite was getting to be number #1 for file sharing. They just plain shot themselves in the foot.

Actually, most would argue they made a very lucrative buisness move.
Mine still works, too.

I'm curious how going from making NO money for a product, to making money for the same product is shooting yourself in the foot?
My Kazaa lite ver. 2.4.1 still works just fine.

Because people arent going to get that spyware loaded crap, they will look for a different application. I'm sure they are going to make some money, but kazza will lose much popularity, and that in turn will crash it's sales when the only thing left on there to download is Elmo's nursery tunes.
I'm gonna recheck my kazza lite, i hope it works again.

If they now make money, when they didn't before, that is in no-way shooting yourself in the foot.
The only people they'll lose popularity with are those who want everything for free. And most of them will use a p2p program to download the retail version of kazaa anway.
To put it bluntly, what you see as shooting themselves in the foot is merely a smart business move.

Have you checked this out? The reason I ask is that mine seems to be working fine. When I saw this post, I started Kazaa Lite and did a search for the Grateful Dead, and I'm looking at about 100 songs ready to be downloaded.

K++ is still working, though to be honest I very rarely use Kazaa or p2p apps. Usenet is a much better resource and d/l speeds are much faster IMHO.

Yup my kazzalite is working. Strange, it wasn't before. The thing I don't like about kazza is that you only get MP3s, not CD's.
So if you are trying to get a certain live performance, for example, it's virtually impossible to do on kazza. This because the MP3's don't tell you if they are live or studio versions.
I have been checking out XDCC bots on Mirc, and the results are good, but the selection is limited.

Kaaza really sucks anyway. The whole peer to peer thing is pretty good and fast but people sharing on the kazaa network are massively infested with worms, viruses and renamed files. It is a real pain in the ass to download something big and be satisfied with it. Plus, rare programs are hard to find.
DC++ is the way to go!

Any place that asks you to pay for Kazaa Lite is a scam. Kazaa Lite was threatened with legal action by Sharman Networks, so development stopped on it and all download locations were closed down. However, another person took over the Kazaa Lite project, his site is at http://kppfree.narod.ru/kdown.htm but it seems to be under construction right now. Their new forums have links to where you can download it though, hope this helps.
