View Full Version : Drastic drop in search speeds and search results

In the past few days, I've noticed Kazaa Lite has peformed very poorly for me. There's been a very significant decline in search speeds and the number of results (even with AutoSearch More) have dwindled down to mediocre. Even when I do find enough sources to download from, the transfer may peak at around 237kbs and then suddenly dip down to 5kbs where it will remain *if* I'm lucky.

Is the collective experience with others here on the FastTrack network, or am I just unfortunate? I tried upgrading to K++ 2.0.2 (I was running K++ 2.0) but that didn't help.

Anyone know what's going on?

I have also been wondering that same thing, I have myself been using Kazaa less and less, as now I use Piolet for music and emule for movies software and games and a web browser for other stuff, but i noticed i couldnt find a once numerously popular file W*nR**Turb* which is now free anyway since they have gone out of business but just to be safe :).

Anyway, maybe someone else has a reason for our troubles...
