I had a friend who had a similar problem and it was his virus scanner which was causing the trouble. try disabling it and see if you can get kazaa to work.

also try disabling your firewall.

Is the modem your running off of a Winmodem? If so...new drivers may be in order.

Your system specs may not be up to par (drop us some of your system specs)...so loading kazaa...downloading/uploading may just about push whatever OS your using over the edge resulting in the Winmodem software/drivers dying (even for a second or less) and you lose the connection.

Norton (Anything) seems to enjoy screwing with P2P apps..so if you have anything made by Norton on your system..remove it.

Grab your system specs with this app..

I also have a slight problem with my BT connection which I was wondering if some of my fellow Brits could help me with.

I only have BT surftime (all I can get in my area) and I was wondering if there was a way to disable the auto-disconnect after two hours?

Its so frustrating!!!

no. none whatsoever, im afraid your stuck with it.

best you can do is to set your pc to auto reconnect on disconnection.

[TFoS_Fan]

How do i set it to auto -reconnect?

[peace]

[grab_grab_the_haddock]

On windows XP go into network connections , right click on your connection, select properties, then under options check the box "redial if line dropped" , in the box set number of redial attempts to whatever you need.

If you aint on windows XP im not sure, although you get countless dial up manager programs which will reconnect for you.

try webattack.com you will find heaps.

I didnt think that P2P was allowed on BT Broadband, only on Openworld (or some other tariff like that). Perhaps they are detecting P2P and kicking you off?

[TFoS_Fan]

thanks for that, I had never noticed that. Wish i could stop it disconnecting at all, you would have thought that there would be a way.

[peace]

[r_xq]

P2P is allowed on BT Broadband. They have a 1G download limit written into the contract, although this is not yet being enforced.

[Muff-Diver-General]

hello..

you can download a small programme which will keep you connected if your running win 98...it will keep you on line..

theres a few out there,, try dialer 2000..

yep bt allow you 1 gig

stool sample on its way

did i say winmx disconnects as well

:fire :hole

[TFoS_Fan]

I don't suppose anyone knows If I can use this Dialer 2000 under XP or one similar. Also, where can I get the program, is it free or will I have to buy *cough* it, lol

[peace]

[Muff-Diver-General]

shareware i think maybe some freeones out there..

try pcworld.com

:fire :fire

dont think it works on xp but you shouldnt need it on there, under options in intenet explorer you should be able to alter you connection settings

any way any one any ideas why i keep getting cut offf

It wont keep you online dude, it just reconnects you if you get d/c. There is nothing you can do to stop your isp disconnecting you.

Yes tfos fan their are freeware programs which do this.

[TFoS_Fan]

Yeah thanks grab, i found the program and came to the same conclusion.
