#5 Posted by net-cruizer on 09 Jun 2003 - 17:45: This RC build has been available for around 2 weeks now.
Mine is still rc15 but I have the files that are in rc16 since nothing is actually new.
I recommend getting this new build, it's pretty cool. K++ keeps gettin better and better.

KaZaa is weak. Bring on the future of P2P. KaZaa is a thing of hte past.

(2 replies) #13 Posted by nifu on 09 Jun 2003 - 23:57: I have K++ version 2.0.3 v.
It doesn't say anything about RC on it and the filename is called kazaa_lite_210_kpp_edition_english
There was a release awhile ago that was newer than my version and every said it was bad because you HAVE to share or something so I didn't use it. Does anyone else remember this? Does this new version work well? Should I update mine? Thanks.

I remember K-Lite requesting sites not to post news bout Test builds.

From the test builds website

QUOTE

The Test Builds are for testing purposes only and NOT the public final versions yet.
Do NOT post the downloads on tech sites!

#14.1 Posted by net-cruizer on 10 Jun 2003 - 03:12: It's linking to their downloads they don't like. When they notice people are linking to the downloads, they change the address a bit, lol.

#15 Posted by Bioslayer on 10 Jun 2003 - 02:16: Anybody have a link that works? All I get is a javascript error.

#16 Posted by darkmatter on 10 Jun 2003 - 02:17: cool....downloading now

#17 Posted by Groovedude on 10 Jun 2003 - 06:31: no link dont seem to work shame

#18 Posted by aleni on 10 Jun 2003 - 10:57: when im running kazaalite, my internet becomes slow as hell when browsing website, why does this happen?

#20 Posted by oldmusicman on 10 Jun 2003 - 15:01: I Dled it. Can't get it to work.

#21 Posted by DOCa Cola on 10 Jun 2003 - 16:58: yea, i love kazaa (besides it emule and dc++)

#22 Posted by net-cruizer on 10 Jun 2003 - 17:41: One thing I think some people may be getting mixed up, is K-Lite K++ is not Kazaa.
Basicly it is a whole different p2p app altogether that uses the fast track network.
You can't even really compare K++ to even Kazaa Lite itself. K++ r00lz.
As soon as the creators of K++ figure out the source code of Kazaa Lite, it will be totally different and even more awsome than it already is.
K++ is worked on all the time, making special tools and adjustments, etc. etc. and lots of other people are working on cool features and add-ons.
They just picked Kazaa Lite to use as a base, seeing is that it uses the fast track network which is huge. So using some other p2p app, even if it is good itself, will not function at getting the files you want cuz it won't have the big user base that Kazaa, Kazaa Lite and K++ have.

#24 Posted by avifear on 10 Jun 2003 - 20:04: I find this build to be kinda buggy.
Well, maybe the final version will be better...

(1 reply) #25 Posted by hockeykkj on 11 Jun 2003 - 02:06: but what's all this business with FastTrack being unsecure (and why Morpheus left FastTrack)? I've tried overnet and the files you get on it (games, movies, etc.) are top-quality when using sharereactor, but i pretty much only dl music and the downloads literally take days (edonkey is slower still). people saying "this app is the future" need to say WHY. People saying "edonkey/emule is the future" need to realize that those programs are extremely un-userfriendly (never tried emule, but edonkey is a pain in the ass to figure out how to work it efficiently, and it takes patience and time to find good servers). K++ on the other hand is simple to use and it is relatively easy to get the stuff you want at good speeds. I'll wait for the final version to come out though.

#26 Posted by net-cruizer on 11 Jun 2003 - 14:17: No point gettin RC16 when RC17 is out now.
Includes newer K-Dat version and a final of KL Extensions 0.50.

(1 reply) #27 Posted by Courage on 11 Jun 2003 - 16:10: RC 17 is OUT

Get it HERE ~ 2.46Mb
