Re: If KaZaA becomes a paid product I'm moving to.....

Just continue useing 1.3.3 and keep backups of these progs on another disk. I DLed 1.4 a while back but it may have a time bomb to self destruct and take out any other version it can find on your machine. Certainly any new owner of kazaa would want all previous versions of Kazaa to disappear. Also, the forum boards at kazaa are gone which stiffles user communications. Is there another site that has well used forums for each of the p2p progs out there?

www.zeropaid.com is a cool site for p2p programs and reviews.

Also, entering:
127.0.0.1 ads.musiccity.com
127.0.0.1 ad.doubleclick.net

in your system hosts file stops ads. I haven't blocked the musiccity.com ads because these guys need to make money some how. But, bye bye doubleclick crap.

Hey dale, could you please explain a bit about blocking the ads? Where is this "hosts" file located? I searched my C: drive for it, and just got unopenable apps. Thanks!

On a Win 9x machine, it's in C:\Windows.
On NT/2000/XP machines, its in C:\WINNT\SYSTEM32\DRIVERS\ETC

Can't say where it is if you're running ME, but I'd guess same as the 9x series.
