Hello I wanted to know if there are any relatively safe file sharing programs out there. I had a nightmare with Kazaa and I really don't want to go through that again. But I miss my music! Thanks.
music does not contain viruses. If that is all you download you should be fime with Kaza.

Kazaa is FULL of spyware, its your choice though. If you want to remove Kazaa go to www.lavasoft.nu but remember after you delete the spyware the program will probably stop working. Take care Aaron

Uninstall Kazaa & all it's bugs.... http://www.geocities.com/Pentagon/Quarters/5077/new/cleankazaa.html Then get Kazaa lite... (http://www.kazaalite.com). It's the same program with the bugs removed and a 'host' file that is placed in the Windows folder to stop the pop up's.
