1:

This first step is not required, but I recommend following these instructions.

- Uninstall any installed copies of KaZaA, Morpheus, Grokster and RefoSearch.

- Run Ad-aware to remove all spyware and adware that might be present on your system.
2: Download and install KaZaA Lite.

KaZaA [ lite edition | version 1.5.1 | 1.44 MB ]

This is an modified installer made by me. It does not install any adware or spyware.
3:

Take a look at the Supertrick below.

This will prevent BDE Viewer and Bonzi Buddy from installing automaticly.
Also will it speed up KaZaA because it will prevent that irritating KaZaA website to be loaded into the main screen of KaZaA.
Furthermore, this is a very good way to block ads and other crappy websites.
4:

Start KaZaA.

Go to "Tools" > "Configure Username".

Fill in a username and a (bogus) e-mail.

!!!! IMPORTANT !!!!
A dummy DLL file called "cd_clint.dll" is placed in the installation directory. This is a required file for KaZaA. Normally this file is a part of a spyware program called Cydoor. This dummy file however is completely harmless. So do not delete it when it is detected by a program such as Ad-aware.

SUPERTRICK

There is a way to disable access to certain websites by editing the Windows HOSTS file.

This file is located here:
Windows 95/98/Me          c:\windows\HOSTS
Windows NT/2000/XP         c:\winnt\system32\drivers\etc\HOSTS
(you may need administrator access for Windows NT/2000)

NOTE: HOSTS is the name of the hosts file and not another directory name. It does not have an extension (extensions are the .exe, .txt, .doc, etc. endings to filenames) and so appears to be another directory in the example above.

If you do not have a HOSTS file yet, download one HERE.

CAUTION: Please make an backup copy before trying to edit the HOSTS file.

You can open the HOSTS file by right-clicking on it and selecting "open with". Then select Notepad.

Add the following lines to the end of the HOSTS file:
127.0.0.1 www.brilliantdigital.com
127.0.0.1 desktop.kazaa.com
127.0.0.1 shop.kazaa.com
127.0.0.1 www.bonzi.com

You can use this same method to block other websites.

How exactly does the HOSTS file work?

The short answer is that the Hosts file is like an address book. When you type an address like www.yahoo.com into your browser, the Hosts file is consulted to see if you have the IP address, or "telephone number," for that site. If you do, then your computer will "call it" and the site will open. If not, your computer will ask your ISP's (internet service provider) computer for the phone number before it can "call" that site. Most of the time, you do not have addresses in your "address book," because you have not put any there. Therefore, most of the time your computer asks for the IP address from your ISP to find sites.

If you put ad server names into your Hosts file with your own computer's IP address (which is 127.0.0.1), your computer will never be able to contact the ad server. It will try to, but it will be simply calling itself and get sort of a "busy signal". Your computer will then give up calling the ad server and no ads will be loaded, nor will any tracking take place. Your choices for blocking sites are not just limited to blocking ad servers. You may block sites that serve advertisements, sites that serve objectionable content, or any other site that you choose to block. Also would it be possible to redirect a website to another website by using that website's IP adress in stead of your computers IP adress.

RefoSearch

!!!! IMPORTANT !!!!
Due to some changes in the FastTrack network (which is used by RefoSearch) the current version of RefoSeach has problems connecting to the network. The same applies for the 'old' version of Morpheus and old versions of KaZaA and Grokster. RefoSearch will not be available until further notice.
