Kazaa

Do you use Kazaa anymore? I used to have it on my computer but got spooked a few months back when the record companies started arresting 13-year old children and erased it from my hard drive.

How safe do you think it is to "go back into the water"?

It's loaded with Spyware. I would advise staying away from it.

I wholeheartedly agree with Carol. I can just about guarantee that your computer has spyware on it unless you have been careful about using a firewall, antivirus, and anti-spyware. Kazaa is a big no-no.
In fact, while I am at it, anyone who orders anything over the net should have a personal firewall to mask your ip address and block outgoing/incoming "pings" between your computer and outside hackers. I hope everyone in here has one.It's a simple thing to get credit card numbers and find out where people go on the net if they do not have a firewall.
I can sit here as I type and watch the list of worlwide computers who have pinged me grow. Five computers, a few from China, have already attempted to access my computer ports in the space of a few minutes. All were blocked because my firewall makes me invisible.

I have a firewall, in fact I think I have a couple of things to protect my computer but thanks for the warning. I am not very computer savvy so I will take heed.

Too bad.

I heard that people have been downloading viruses disguised as songs and programs, I think it is more risky than it used to be. I also have a firewall and I still got loaded with spyware programs just froma game I go play online.
 
Check out Kazaa Lite or Kazaa Gold. You pay a one time fee for this software. You don't have to worry about spyware or pop-ups with this program.
