-- Posted by Robb Force on 12:15 am on Sep. 23, 2001 Anyone use these programs yet? I hear the're similar to Napster except they allow you to share music, images, and movies. I haven't tried them out yet since they only seem to be available for Windows. -- Posted by honky618 on 10:58 am on Sep. 23, 2001 yes, I have it (kazaa). its my favorite filesharing prog. maybe if you send the maker of the program an e-mail they might make a version for macs. -- Posted by JuggleFoe on 12:28 pm on Sep. 23, 2001 there's this program for mac os x called LimeWire that allows you to download from the gnutella network. -- Posted by Robb Force on 1:49 pm on Sep. 23, 2001 I used a Gnutella prog several months ago, but I could never connect to anything or get anything. I haven't tried LimeWire though... -- Posted by Amor Fati on 1:06 pm on Sep. 24, 2001 I use Morpheus and its MY favorite  file sharing program...Never been disappointed by it.

Waaay too much hype for them. -- Posted by JuggleFoe on 5:33 am on Sep. 27, 2001 "hey bulldog", and "elanor rigby" are pretty keen. -- Posted by Robb Force on 9:34 am on Sep. 28, 2001 I went to LimeWire's site and it turns out that it's available for about 6 or 7 operating systems. There's a version for Windows, Mac OS classic, Mac OS X, Linux, UNIX I think and some others. I'll try it out on my Mac when I get home. -- Posted by CardsForSorrow on 2:26 pm on Sep. 30, 2001 hehe, Radiohead rock......... I like most types of music too....

Bleh.  Y'all are probably sick to death of hearing about my musical interests by now. -- Posted by JuggleFoe on 10:04 pm on Oct. 3, 2001 'nersh, all i have to say is that, in a purely hypothetical situation, if we were in a car together, and you put a cure album on, i'd be forced to strike you. ;) :boxing_smiley: -- Posted by honky618 on 2:01 pm on Oct. 4, 2001 *totally agrees with foe* -- Posted by CardsForSorrow on 2:34 pm on Oct. 4, 2001 Cure?

They get old real quick, but that don't mean it's not kick-ass music. -- Posted by honky618 on 2:03 pm on Oct. 9, 2001 but its not kick ass music. -- Posted by grinspoonz on 9:33 pm on Oct. 9, 2001 Quote: from honky618 posted at 2:01 pm on Oct. 4, 2001 *totally agrees with foe* Hey honk, is there any room for me to fit my tongue up foe's arse too? Hehe. -- Posted by honky618 on 6:39 pm on Oct. 10, 2001 sure, because my tongue isn't. I'm aloud to agree with someone without brown-nosing. -- Posted by JuggleFoe on 8:14 pm on Oct. 10, 2001 this doesn't belong here. grinz, quit it. -- Posted by honky618 on 2:02 pm on Oct. 11, 2001 sometimes topics change.  its called conversation. -- Posted by JuggleFoe on 6:04 pm on Oct. 11, 2001 yeah, and sometimes people overstep their boundaries, and break the rules. it's called "pile-worthy". -- Posted by honky618 on 1:54 pm on Oct. 12, 2001 well, then get robb to move it. -- Posted by JuggleFoe on 9:47 pm on Oct. 12, 2001 well, part of being a responsible member of this society, in my opinion, is conducting yourself in a manner where you don't have to have other people mod you - having the restraint, and enough respect for others that you moderate yourself, in other words. -- Posted by JuggleFoe on 9:50 pm on Oct. 12, 2001 i mean, someone tell me if i'm wrong...

I'm loving it so far... works much better than Napster. Damn you grinspoonz. You got me all scared now. -- Posted by grinspoonz on 6:34 pm on Oct. 14, 2001 Taken from The Register: KaZaA the Virus Desktop By John Thornton, Hacker's Digest Posted: 09/10/2001 at 12:02 GMT KaZaA the media desktop has been one of the most successful replacements for file sharing after U.S. courts ordered Napster to shut down. KaZaA offers its users a way of sharing music, video, documents, images, and software. But six per cent of all music downloaded from KaZaA is not music at all, but a virus. Currently, there is no way to infect mp3s with a virus; however KaZaA's poor filtering allows someone to rename a virus to - say - cant_touch_this.mp3.vbs. When you do a search for the song named "Can't Touch This" KazaA will display this as "cant_touch_this.mp3", without displaying the .vbs extension. This problem affects more than music: Hacker's Digest Labs has found the Love Letter Virus disguise as videos, images and executables. What does KaZaA say about this? This is what the FAQ has to say: "Q: Can I get viruses using KaZaA? A: As always when you are downloading or receiving files from the Internet, you must exercise caution. Certain file types may contain viruses or so-called Trojan horses. You should protect yourself by using regularly updated anti-virus software, for example Norton Antivirus (www.norton.com) or McAfee(www.mcafee.com). Both Norton and McAfee offer free 30-day trial versions that you can download directly from their web sites. Not all file types can contain viruses or Trojans. Music, video, and picture files are generally safe - that includes files with the extensions .mp3, .vaw, .mpg, .avi, .mov, .bmp and .jpg. PDF documents (.pdf) and text files (.txt) are also in general safe. You should be cautious of executable files (.exe) and Microsoft Word and Excel documents (.doc and .xls). These files are specified with a icon in the search results on KaZaA.com." This is true, however with the poor filtering in the KaZaA media desktop, it is extremely easy for anyone to be tricked into running a virus thinking it is his or her favorite song. ® -- Posted by honky618 on 1:30 pm on Oct. 15, 2001 it might not show the .vbs in the title. but if you scroll all the way over to where it says "filename" it has to show it in there. and if youre scared of a virus, do a scan on it before opening it.   I usually just do a scan on the .exe's before opening. -- Posted by grinspoonz on 4:49 am on Nov. 1, 2001 Like I've said before, it's the spyware that I don't want on my machine. The virii don't worry me, NAV 2002 makes short work of most of those little suckers. -- Posted by Robb Force on 7:14 pm on Nov. 16, 2001 Most Trojans and virii are pretty easy to detect. Use your best judgement. Most mp3's are around 3-5 MBs. If you find an mp3 that's 100k or less, you know it's probably not an mp3...
