Google is smarter than you think

When you do the search, it links to the complaint, which is public record, which lists all the sites they removed...so they are still, in a way, listed.

Oh my gawd!! Copyright infringement? Sharman sure has some big ones packing to complain about copyright infringement to Google. Of course Google will tell Sharman to stick it... well you know the rest

who cares...

Those that use Kazaa Media Desktop are likely the same ones that keep AOL in business. They are also the ones that will get the subpoenas for sharing.
Kazaa Lite is great...period. If Sharman feels threatened then they should for their spyware-laden, pathetic attempt at cashing in on "free" software. So what if it's removed from Google? There ARE other search engines, although they give you a list of sites obviously viewed as the better ones by Sharman networks. This is RIAA-style.

They didn't remove the real site, only the sites

They didn't remove the real site, only the sites that had even more trojans installed and software to take over a users computer.

i am glad they did it. to protect the idiots out there that searched for kazaa lite and got a even more dangerous version of kazaa.

the real www.kazaalitekpp.com is still listed

Does this mean Kazaa has built-in anti-virus software because they care so much about "the stability and security of users' computers". That's a bunch of crap.
