The New Kazaa Sucks
I downloaded it and it almost broke my computer. I had to reboot in "safe" mode and manually delete it. Is there someplace I can download the "old" Kazaa w/o all the viruses or whatever the hell is screwing up my computer?

2. I'd suggest Kazaa Lite, but I'm not sure where to download...

7. Or get it here
Go to http://www.makkiwhip.com">www.makkiwhip.com and you'll find the correct and working link to Kazaa Lite installation zip file down along the left side of the page about half-way down.

Shameless plug time: also check out the free music at the top of the page, of which I am co-composer and co-artist.

8. LOL - what is that site?
Random. I like the girl jiggling her breasts though. So do you mean the kazaa_excellent.zip file will NOT break my computer?

9. Correct
It's what I've got installed on my computer. Of course, I cannot vouch for your computer's present configuration.

The usual warnings apply to this installation: close all other running programs before beginning the installation.

10. Zeropaid
Yup, use www.zeropaid.com like someone else suggested. You can download KL from there. Google is blocking it, so you won't find it using Google.

11. Find it on Kazaa itself
Many people have Kazaa Lite in their shared folders.

Or search it out on Zeropaid.

13. Linux + giFT + FastTrack plugin + Apollon = bliss
That rather uneven collection of software can be setup so you can access not only the Kazaa network, but also Gnutella, OpenNap and OpenFT (giFT's own protocol). Kind of a bitch to set up, but once done it's pure joy. Liter than Kazaa Lite.

15. the old kazaa sucks too..
Too many renamed files on Kazaa. I would suggest that you use SoulSeek for music, and Overnet for uhhhhh.. evaluating software and reviewing movies.
