Kazaa Media Desktop
Looking for MP3s? This free program offers a
feature-packed peer-to-peer file-sharing
application that's a great resource for finding
MP3s, as well as other media files, such as
audio, video and images. Kazaa offers a powerful
search engine and lets you download, organize
and play multimedia files.
(For Windows).
- Kazaa's main
drawback is the adware it installs on your
computer. If you're going to use Kazaa, we
suggest you also download
Diet K,
a free program that removes all adware from
Kazaa. Diet K also features a download
accelerator and improves Kazaa's search
functions.
- If you use Kazaa,
you may experience periodic Web speed
slowdowns. To counter this, we recommend
Marketscore, a free Internet accelerator
program.
