How come when I asked advise on Kazaalite and downloading music, I was made to feel like a criminal, and yet some of you reccomend it to others. I don't get it. Read my post above and the answers. Am I missing something? Maybe I didn't ask the right question? How can you guys reccomend downloading MP3s to some and tell me how wrong it is? Just wondering!!!

P2P filesharing networks are not illegal however the sharing of right protected software, music and movies through these networks is. In your second post in that thread (which I see has now been deleted) you asked for help with a movie that you had downloaded from Kazaa. It is against TSG rules to help with pirated movies etc...

Thanks, yes I deleted the second message because I mentioned that I had downloaded a movie and I felt it was better getting rid of that post. I didn't know it was illegal to download the movie at the time I did. I am new at this file sharing thing, and for that reason I came here for answers.

I really don't know what p2p means, and can't figure out yet what's legal and what's not, but I am going to educate myself so that I don't get in trouble.

Now my question, can I download from Kazaalite or not? Someone told me if I keep the sharing folder empty than I am okay. I really don't know. I don't even care for all this modern music. The music I like is old Italian folk songs and the artists have died long ago..................

What if everyone took that stance and kept their shared folder empty then nobody would be able to get any files would they!

Kazaalite is the way to go. No spyware or adware comes with the program. Easy to use. Dont worry if some people make you feel like a criminal for using this program. MILLIONS USE IT!!! If it's just for your home use dont give it another thought.

LOL, Can't win today. Anyway, that's what I was told by someone, and you're right, can't share an empty folder. Even I know that. But like I said, I am learning as I go along, and for that reason I am asking lots of questions.

I guess from here on I am going to use my better judgment and see what happens.......thanks for the feedback....

P.S.

Thank you Chaltun for your post. I feel better already!!!

Thank you guys, you're great!!

This seems to be a topic of alot of debate: but let me put and end to it.
The best p2p program is
IMESH version 3.0

I do not recommend 4.0 - it is full of spyware but 3.0 is clean except for newdomain.net-which you can just uninstall.
