Who said anything about warez? There's no warez discussion here.

And Israel laws don't matter... this server is in the USA. :p

Looks like warez aren't allowed here either.

I mentioned that merely because he mentioned this, surely thats illegal, I'll edit my post, but his should be deleted.. Hence my little rant at the legality of this page.

Wow, welcome to the 1990's! Kazaa should be dead and buried by now. Its a big step behind the other P2P networks like BT and eDonkey.

A good BT client would be something like Azureus which is actually written in java, but is fairly well featured fortunately :gfdrin:

To resume a download you essentially reopen the torrent, and save it to the same location, in Azureus there is a download queue so the process is fairly simple. It may take a while for the download to resume, because the program has to rehash the partially downloaded file, basically to check what has downloaded and what hasn't.

P2P isn't illegal per se. Mozilla used torrents to distribute Firefox 1.0 when it was released. Some Linux distros are made available over BT as well as it is a good way to share large files quickly :)

I know that... I wrote those rules. :p The reason I said Israel laws don't matter is because traxor was talking about Israel for no apparent reason... :s

I dont remember mentioning any warez .. Where did you get that Traxor :-)..

Anyway here in israel even if its illegal to download warez people still do it -_- and no one really cares.. People actually sell burnt discs from downloaded warez and they arent even scared about police because the police do warez too.. LoL its a fuked up country :-)

Anyway shareaza is a really good program and i like it very very very much!

Isn't it against the rules to speak and/or post links to warez sites or p2p networking sites that deal with warez and other stuff like music?

shareaza isnt a warez site.. Its a p2p program.. You can use it for warez uses but thats not exactly what its ment for ;)

There are hundreads of p2p programs and not one of them DOESNT include warez... PLus kazaa is the most illigal program there is becuase it should have been dead along time ago... I remember back when we all used napster hahaha..

Why dont u trust shareaza anyway?? It looks really good and fast

I don't use shareaza cause its dodgy, full stop. I don't like it at all, IMO, Kazaa Lite K++ is the best, from what I've heard... 8-)
