I know on kazaa lite there's a spyware killer on the start page, works pretty well. I'm at school though so I can't give you the link right now.

OH, most definately. Besides the fact that k-lite is faster and gets a lot more hits when you search for stuff, it doesn't bug the hell out of your computer.

Adaware was the program on Kazaa Lite I was talking about, I couldn't remember it's name.

You should switch to Kazaa Lite regardless though, it comes without spyware and adware

i got a
1.6 ghz processor
512 megs of ram
80 gig hard drive

what other factors make for a fast computer..

EDIT:

the amount of processes you have running can eat up memory fast...you can see the number of processes by pressing ctrl+alt+delete...then go to processes...20 or so is normal...PF usage generally isnt good as well...

Yeah...my friend deleted new.net and it fucked up his whole computer

Try searching for spy bot search and destroy it may find someting esle.

Then delete all old programs and delete your temporary internet files.

Try here. It's a German site but I think Kazaa will still run in english once you download it.

Kazaa sucks. Kazaa Lite sucks slightly less.

Get Soulseek if you want a file sharing client that's actually good.

Oh, and if you want a great free virus remover, try AVG. www.grisoft.com

Bus SPeed is the other determining factor. Dunno how to check it, though.

It's how fast information is sent two and from the processor, or something like that. I forget exactly.
