Download Kazaalite, it's spyware free and works just as well if not better. Just search for it on google.com.

And KaZaA was developped by some fellow Dutchies. But you don't hear me boasting about it... ;)

KAR_MOD1 09-26-2002 10:04 AM

yea kazaa has spyware included w/ it, it even says so in the End user License Agreement. Yes, no one reads those, I didnt use to , but now i do. there are different versions of kazaa that dont contain spyware, like kazaa lite. but they are not affiliated w/ kazaa.

Uh, not to be nitpicky or anything ;) but "Dutch" isn't precisely a country. [img]tongue.gif[/img]
Ever heard of a tiny country called the Netherlands? In fact, it's about the same size as Estonia... ;)

God, what is it with you pedantic Dutchies? :D [img]tongue.gif[/img]
