Can anybody please give me some detailed information on how to force Kazaa Lite Resurrection or Kazaa Lite K++ 2.4.3 into connecting? I just had it a while ago, but uninstalling the older of these two programs caused the new one to mess up.
I'm using XP SP2 on a DSL connection.

Erm... I know there's issues with SP2's firewall, but why are you still using Kazaa? There's plenty of other good, reliable filesharing systems out there.

Hmm. From what you've said, it almost seems like the uninstall of the older version could've removed a file the newer one needed to function properly One other thing I can think of is this: go to Control Panel -> Windows Firewall -> Exceptions, and try adding the .exe for Kazaa to that list. If you're using some other firewall program, you might try seeing if there's a way to make sure it allows Kazaa to connect.

I agree with Colleen though. If you really want to continue using Kazaa, look up Diet K. I used that program a bit with SP2, and it worked fine, but I uninstalled it after finding another P2P program that I liked more. What you're using may basically be the same thing, but I liked it better knowing for a fact that the Kazaa install wasn't putting any spyware on my computer.

Yep, there's a lesson. When you're upgrading a program, uninstall the old one first. A fresh reinstall of the one that you have left on your computer should fix it.

Anyways, Kazaa sucks. Bit-torrent kicks arse.
