there is alot of controversy about file sharing programs and whether they should be legal or not. Although in the contract that users must sign before being able to use the program the company promises not to give out any personal information or sell you out to spyware. but recent developments have been arising that users that are using kazza have been being sold out to spywhere and are now facing multimillion lawsuits. has anybody else heard of this happening to people? if so is there any way that you acn keep from being sold out to spyware?

Prevent spyware.. Um.. Give up the internet? It's like abstinence.. None at all is the only 100% safe solution.

jet is correct, there is no way you can be 100% safe. One way that you can protect yourself somewhat is never give out your information, especially to file sharing programs. I don't use kazza, so I didn't know that they have you fill in information. My suggestion would to look for other file sharing programs that doesn't require user info. My suggestion would be like eMule or use mirc downloads.

I am 110% safe, mostly because I am not only A+ certified but I'm using lindows and I run my own business fixing computers

Kazaa Lite is pretty good. It has alot less spyware then Kazaa and is pretty safe. Most people I know have LimeWire for some reason.

  2. Sharing Documents (website)
    any suggestions ? (4)
    My father is looking for a some kind of website where he can share documents with friends and
    colleagues.The documents should only be accesible by his friends/colleagues, because some contain
    sensitive data (eg. about work). The users also have to be able to give comments on the files. The
    last requirement seems to be the hardest, because there are a lot of data-sharing sites available,
    but no of them seem to have an option to give comments on the files. So, do you guys have any

  3. Need Correct Program To Open MD5 File In Windows XP
    (7)
    Somehow I changed how an MD5 file gets opened and it now gets opened with windows media player.
    I've gone to Control Panel>Folder Options>File Types, but there is no restore to default. The
    only restore to default is under Folder Options>General, and I've tried that and it doesn't
    change it. I am trying to re-install my Xammp because it isn't working, and Xammp installer
    opens with an MD5 file, so I have a problem here. Does anyone know the program that opens an MD5
    file for Windows XP?....
  4. Find Out A Files Original File Type
    (6)
    Hi, is there any way to find out a file's original file type/extension? My friend gave me this
    song from a Chinese series and I had to play around with the extensions until I got it working (made
    it .wmv). He doesn't even know the original format, but I'm guessing he's using wmv to
    use it also. I tried naming it to .mp3 and .wma to see if those work...both failed. I like to keep
    all my audio files as mp3 files. Was going to look for a program to convert it to mp3, but have a
    question. I highly doubt this file was originally a .wmv file since it's jus....

    I have posted this somewhere before a while back, but seemed to get nowhere. I looked in the

    accidently changed the program that opens MD5 files. Someone told me to go to Start>Control
    Panel>Folder Options>File Types and find the MD5 file and just restore it to it's default.
    Well, there is no option for that. I was just wondering if someone could go to folder options and
    tell me what it is that opens it. I am trying to download XAMMP, but it is in MD5 form. I am not....
