How can I download
skins for Kazaa Lite?
Just search for "kazaa skins" in
Kazaa Lite and you will find lots of them.
Install them in c:\program files\kazaa lite\skins\
You also download some skins here.
Note: Installing a skin for
some Kazaa builds might result in a loss of buttons.

How
does the Participation Level work?
Kazaa and Kazaa Lite version 2 have a Participation
Level feature.
If you have a high Participation Level, you will
get priority over people with a lower Participation
Level when you download files. This only applies
if you download from someone that also uses v2.
If you download from someone with an old version,
there will be no difference in priority, it will
just be first come first serve.
Some facts:
- You can increase your Participation Level
by uploading files.
- When you download files, your Participation
Level will go down.
- The higher you Participation Level is, the
more difficult it is to maintain that value.
This means the ratio of bytes uploaded/downloaded
must be higher to maintain your level.
- Old versions automaticly get a Participation
Level value of Low (0). This value cannot be
changed.
- Our Resurrection Editions will give you the
highest possible Participation Level.

I
want to download a file from a friend of mine, but
I can't seem to find it
When you are connected to the network that
is used by Kazaa, you are connected to only one
Supernode. When you do a search, it will only search
through the list of files from the people that are
connected to the same Supernode. There are however
many Supernodes (thousands?) all over the world.
So the chance you and your friend are connected
to the same piece of the network is very small.
You can both use the KaZupernodes
program to be able to connected to the same Supernode.
That should make it more easy to find each others
files.
If you want to exchange files, there are much
better ways. Most Instant Message Programs (MSN,ICQ,etc.)
have to ability to send/receive files. Another
good way is IRC or FTP, but that requires some
more computer experience.

Is
it possible to add users to a list of favorites?
No, that is not possible. The main reason
for this is that usernames on Kazaa are not unique.
That means that there might be several people with
the same username online. Using a Username and IP
address combination also does not work, because
most users have a dynamic IP, which means it changes
everytime you reboot (cable/dsl) or everytime you
dial-in.
It is also not possible to change the system, so
that usernames must be unique. The reason for this
is that it would require a centralised login server
to authenticate users. A centralised part of the
network would make the network controlable, and
it thus can be shut down. This would eventually
mean that the network will be forced to shut down
by court.

Is
it possible to search for a specific user?
No, thats not possible. The reason why is
explained in the question above this one.
