What's safe on Kazaa?

[Perndog]

People on Kazaa get busted for uploading, not downloading. You can download all you want, as long as the spies don't see you sharing all sorts of stuff. You have two options here:

1. Don't share any files; you can disable uploading in Kazaa.

2, the better choice: Use Kazaa Lite (also comes without Adware, unlike Kazaa) and turn on the privacy option, which prevents your computer from sending lists of your available files; people will still find your files on individual searches, but they can't just search your files. This will limit anyone's view of your collection to whatever is being transferred at that time (I allow 2 max uploads), and you'll be pretty much safe, since the RIAA is all about their "5% of users sharing 95% of the files" idea - they're only after those they can nail down with hundreds or thousands of shared files.

Kazaa Lite should also be getting new features to increase security soon. Good luck.
