MSN Messenger & Kazaa

Vampyromaniac · Dec 26, 2002, 07:02 AM

If anyone can tell me of a registry hack or some other edit I can do to stop the incessant prompting I'm receiving from these apps to download the latest versions, I will say "thank you, my good man."

I've also had about enough of MSN Messenger never wanting to remember that I don't want any of their stupid "useful" side-tabs to be displayed.
I: remove
They: reappear
I: wonder why I bothered being conceived
They: laugh at me till their abs do hurt

for the tabs in msn, goto the privacy tabs in options and check 'this is a shared computer dont display my tabs' and download the latest version of kazaalite www.kazaalite.com

Ahh thank you for the tabs fix

As for "DL latest version of kazaalite" . . . come on craig, I ain't THAT dumb

^ Well KaZaAlite doesn't prompt about updates and now I wouldn't trust anything but the lite version

and I don't trust that all that much

There is hacked K++ version (known as Kpp) which is 2.0.2 and has hacked participation constantly at 1000! Rules.

I didn't update cuz I thought this was dead, buuuuuuuut . . . .

Craig I am usin' KazaaLite, and it does prompt for updates

But, I installed Diet Kaza 2.0, and WOOHOO the prompts are gone

To Riva, what is that "hacked participation constantly at 1000" you mentioned? What does that mean?

Thanks guys for replying

***craig5320*** · Jan 13, 2003, 04:11 PM

Well are you using KaZaAlite 2.02 coz i am and i have no prompts and no diet crap for me! full fat! without the adware

and does the participation level actually make any difference?

Louie6666 · Jan 13, 2003, 04:23 PM

Yep it allows you to queue jump & combined with speed up function(hammers more sorurces) in kazaalite brings downloads in a lot quicker

LowLevelOwl · Jan 13, 2003, 04:33 PM

Louie6666 where can we get this hack from?

RIV@NVX · Jan 13, 2003, 04:47 PM

doa2.hosts.sk - there it is.

Lol, no craig, Diet Kaza isn't crap, it's an add-on for KazaaLite, has a few useful options

Oh, I'm using 1.7.2. What is queue jumping, though?

Well when your waiting in McDonalds and just as you get to the counter, that big fat mommy comes storming past bumps you out the way with a side ripple off her belly and places her order for 5,000 Grill orders. That's a queue jumper. You know the women, she tours the world making appearances in McDonalds everywhere.

In terms of KaZaA when it says Remote Queued, it means your in a queue on the person who has the file's PC. and that queue is supposedly ordered according to your participation level. So if you have 1000 you'll be placed above someone with 500 etc. and effectively jump the queue!

He Aims!, He Shoots! He Scores!

Ha! Don't *ever* upgrade to the last MSN messenger version. It's full of ads, popping out from everywhere. Somebody should hack MSN, too... Or even better, go get Trillian... It's not the usual bloatware branded messenger. Slim, fast and quick connect to several (most used) messenger services.

Damn, I was advertising Trillian. I smell better marketing strategies from your part... You almost made me try this MSN plus. But I won't do it, 'cause I know you can get no better than Trillian...

One month, you say? I was browsing the posts, I had no idea I went so much back in time

***craig5320*** · Feb 17, 2003, 10:55 AM

One month since the last reply, it was started way back on Boxing Day 2002

Vampyromaniac · Feb 17, 2003, 07:04 PM

Lol, they keep coming back

Hehe

Well, I did already use Trillian before MSN, and still did after I signed up for MSN, but sometimes I need to use voice . . . .
