kazza ?? like uh
 

can anyone help me get connected to the world outside Lime ?

like kazza servers or else ?

I recently changed to Kazaa from Limewire as I was having so many problems. I tried all the fixes but it didn't work. Kazaa seems to work really well for me. It is far from bug free, but it is a vast improvment! I got it from www.kazaa.com. There is a free version and a pro version. I use the free one and it works pretty well. Good Luck.

Bad KaZaA
 

Yes, well, I did the exact opposite: I came FROM Kazaa TO LimeWire as I could not download anything at Kazaa. But I can't get anything to download in LimeWire either so I don't know WHAT to do or use anymore.

has kazaa come up with a mac client yet? if not, is there any other file-sharing app with a bigger user base than limewire/gnutella? i have a much harder time finding files i want than my pc/kazaa-using friends.... the lonely world of mac.....

i use both nothing to complain about on either though kazaa Lite is better

i also use both but find kazaa is faster in download than limewire but lime wire is good in collection of files .. many files downloaded from kazaa are corrupted or does not work and till now the files (though few) which have dowloaded from limewire are much better ..but its slow and it annoys sometimes

Yes, but Kazaa has 30 times more users than Gnutella - you find more sources and can download your files faster.

Jaytakker, this has nothing to do with the client or the network. Do you have often problems with videos? If so you need more codecs.

Rainbow Girl,

you should give us more infos, like which firewall you have, are you behind a proxy etc.

The LimeWire home page is boldly stating 'Faster Downloads than Kazaa'

I guess this means the swarming has improved and minimized the effect of the slowest link in the chain. From the few tests I've made of swarming a large files (200MB .mpg's), Lw may be right. I often hit my max DL limit of 100KB/s.

Is the Kazaa swarming more effective than GNet's?

That makes sense. btw--I'm seeing the new searches on GNet with the LW betas result in more 'successful' results. You notice an improvement? [tia]

You sure tried a file with many sources...

My experience is that sometimes Gnutella might be faster, but the normal way is that I find more sources with Kazaa lite - that means that I normally can download my files much faster. And it happened very often that I find files with kazaa that I couldn´t find in Gnutella. IMHO the best way is to use more than one client.

I wouldn´t say that kazaa swarming is technically more effective - I have to repeat: more sources = faster downloads.
