I looked around zeropaid first

[bobhss]

What in the world is Zalzah? It's a P2P program for sure, but how come I can't find word of it on Zeropaid? I visited their site http://www.zalzah.com but I'm still at a loss as why I haven't heard about it at Zeropaid first. Lets have a look at this shall we?

[Fatboyslack54]

Wow it looks ( the site i mean) pretty good and it could connect to Fastrack and Gnutella? hard to believe but give me word if you like it or somebody else does?

[Fatboyslack54]

Wow i went to a couple sites and I just found out that Zalzah came out on the 14th which means yesterday! Wow it looks pretty good ill give it a try!

[Rickio]

Yeah looks promising.
If anyone has tried it, please post your reaction.

I'm downloading it now.

Peace

This is not intended to be sarcastic, but why is this any better than KLite? I checked out the functions and it looks like a repackage of KLite. Infact, the FAQ's look quite familiar.

Serious question, not being a prick.

[Jared592]

Hmm....this is an interesting prog. I don't get why it mentions it using the Morpheus, KaZaa, and Gnutella networks, as Morpheus uses Gnutella now if I'm not mistaken. It looks like a recreated KaZaa, having the same layout but modified a good bit. It also lets you modify what extensions each search category (ie. documents, software, etc) searches for, so you can tell it to search for *.iso and *.zip...

[TC75580]

I'm suspicious of this.... can anyone confirm that it works before I install?

[Fatboyslack54]

You are right, it looks totally like kazaa lite and the media player doesnt work for me. Whenever i try playing something it opens with another player not the one located within the program. I tried playing mp3s videos etc.

[Fatboyslack54]

Actually guys, if we all start sharing on this program it will be pretty good dont you think?

[bobhss]

The CNET link has version 1.1, ZDNET has version 1.2

[Fatboyslack54]

Umm krell thanks for the reply but im trying to play the files from the shared files tab and they dont open up with the player in the program. Another thing, did you see that the search results are toooooo fast to be only on gnutella. What else do you think this program connects too? does it have its own network? I am sharing all i've got on it and you should too! There is already 3 uploads off of me!!

zalzah.com is down... at least for the moment...

i hope this is nice, and the site is up later...

Umm u are right, it does not use up cpu usage. Another thing, maybe its because the program came out yesterday!!! That is why there arent many search results so far!! LOL
Another thing, what do you think i should do so the media player works?

[Skeptikal]

Hey.... it seems that these guys at RR has allready covered this...

they have screenshots of this proggy too :S :S :S

[wonderboy2005]

if this truely does connect to multiple networks, it will most likely usher in the 3rd generation of p2p. w00t.

I am playing the BBC RADIO 1 ESSENTIAL MIX LIVE - WILLIAM ORBIT - 2002 - 02 -06.mp3. I started it when the file was 28 %, I am 6 1/2 minutes in to the song, which is now 44% complete. Not a hickup.

People . . . . WILLIAM ORBIT is god. fyi.

I just managed to collect all of orbits albums last week, but the very last one. I think it's called strange cargo 5

He is way cool!

[TC75580]

It doesn't connect to fasttrack, however, while it says it does.

[Ken17625]

A lot of the text on the website is

A. In a stupid font.

B. SMALL!!!

So in conclusion, I can't read a lot of the text on their website.

Reading the posts from RapidRoad, ZalZah doesn't connect to FT and it's just another Gnutella based prog. Is that true?


Ken17625

I see the font fine, it suppose to be some sort of handwriting font. You may want to get some font help or download a fonts pack. It'll help in the future too!

From my experince if you don't have the font that the web site has, then it'll display a default font which is really small.


Everyone

Interesting that this program didn't have any type of advertising or marketing, kinda like a silent push. The site says nothing of who made it. Could it be that some creator of a dying p2p program made ZalZah?! Just a thought.

[ryan2_2]

the faqs and the user guides are ripped from kazaa

review from download.com:

Zalzah Ultra 1.1 is high-performance, user-friendly, peer-to-peer file-sharing software. Autoinstall, autoconfig, autoconnect, and simple one-click controls make Zalzah easy to use. You can search for audio, video, images, documents, software, and more using the Gnutella Network or the Web. Find MP3, WMA, and Ogg music, MPEG, DiVX, ASF, MOV, and AVI movies, and JPEG and GIF pictures. A parent-controlled adult filter for family use is included. Zalzah delivers ultrafast results by automatically downloading parts of the same file from many users all at once. Zalzah’s advanced download manager enables multiple searches simultaneously while automatically resuming broken and unfinished downloads. Zalzah doesn't just retry, it auto-re-searches the network until it finds what you want. Zalzah’s unlimited bit rates deliver the highest quality content available. Version 1.1 provides better, faster and more reliable connections to ultrapeers from the gWebCache servers. Zalzah Ultra includes the UltraPeers connection for faster searches, more downloads, and better network connections with lower CPU and bandwidth usage. Upgraded security features allow you to automatically scan files for viruses, preview files, and ban servers hosting malicious and fake files. Windows Me and 98 bugs are fixed, and performance is greatly improved for dial-up modem users."

From reading all the above posts and then reading the RapidRoad forum posts (which BTW give a lot more detail). This "client" is just a bad KazaaLite rip-off that doesn't even connect to FastTrack. Turns out it does connect to Gnutella making it a comparable Morpheus clone which is technically lacking. From what DogWard says, after decompiling, it does have some FT code but apparently can't break into the network.
And that font on the homepage does suck!

Yup!
I just came back from reading the forum at rapidroad and it is just a old gnutella client that has some code for fast-track that doesn't work. I'm sure it is really one big bug ;-p

oh well, maybe they will try harder or give up....

[bobhss]

Well, this is why Zeropaid exists. We discuss P2P programs until our eyes bleed and then we dance. I'm glad to have somewhere to get answers from competent people about things I don't even know about. Krell the installer tested the program enough for me. I'm ready to keep using what I've been using till something better comes out. Thanks guys.

i agree with that, and wanted to and my thnx to Krell!

[Azo-999]

So - No need to "dance ZalZah", thkx 4 the opinions before I even downloaded it.

How many more these try-outs with "millions of featured improvements" are coming out to "market" with copy / paste self-brags to get peeps to DL those Grab_Grab_The_GrabDogs ;-)
(Plz Haddock, don't get angry of "almost borrowing" Your fine name...)

Maybe - just maybe - one fine day there'll come an app that finally puts together all the famous networks with peers or not.
Gnutella, FastTrack, e2k, MX and DC's etc...

That kind of an app would be called a P2P-JukeBox ;-))
(as i.e. MMJB, RealOne and J.River does [FINE] for all audio / video -formats, ripping, burning, broadcast radio, web-tv and much more...)

Peace for ManKind and Kind Man!

:sw :sw :sw

That would be the most joyous and wonderful day, and the ultimate p2p app! Hope that one fine day comes soon!
