Ok. I want to no the best way to install K++ without having any problems or errors. Last time, the 1.03 really ate up all my RAM. I know that K++ doesn't really take up any RAM, but I haven't had problems w/ Kazaa Lite until I downloaded the cracked 1.03. To this day, I still don't know what the problem is and have posted a separate thread on it, located Here (http://www.zeropaid.com/bbs/showthread.php?s=&threadid=5379)
I didn't start the thread on it but just asked for help on a reply. I'm gonna try out K++ 2.0 because I wanna be a part of it too. I've heard great things about it and hopefully this one will work good for me. Last time, I uninstalled Kazaa Lite and sig2dat and removed corresponding reg keys. Is this a good method? I wanna make sure I do everything rite to avoid all problems, since I still don't know what the original problem was myself. Unless it just doesn't work too well for 56Kers. :( If anyone can help me please do.

I guess the only way too find out is to try it....Uninstall anything & everything that has to do with KaZaA as well as removing the registry entries related to it (if you know how). Then try re-installing it. Make sure you have the latest version. No need to install Sig2Dat as it comes bundled with it as well as other usefull tools. See if that helps! Good luck!

Also keep in mind that on 56k more sources is probably not that helpful. Unless you're searching for rare files, you probably don't need the infinite search more either, so it might not be worth all this. Hope you figure it out though.:hole

It may not be, but as a former dial-up user a few years back, it can help. If you're downloading off of one user with a speed of 2kb/s, imagine what it would be like if you got another user with 13kb/s. It may not be much, but with 15kb/s, that's a big jump for someone who's on 56k. The most I ever got when I was on dial-up was 20kb/s, and that's about average. But yes, the more sources you do get, the slower your PC runs because it can only handle so much. It's like a thin straw (dial-up)...how much can you drink out of one thin straw? Not a whole lot. Now try 1000 straws (cable,dsl)....You can suck up the whole entire universe with those ones (not to mention a big, chubby face!).
