Has Kazaa gotton to slow?

For the last 3 weeks when I download anything from Kazaa the download speed is less than 1 kb/s.

It doesn't matter whether its Mp3's or Music Videos, it takes forever to get anything downloaded.

Is everyone else having this problem?

FYI, I use a broadband connection and used to get fast speeds a while ago but in the last 6 months Kazaa downloading has gotton slower and slower for me.

Depends on where you are. Some states are limiting its use or blocking it. I know Texas is doing this....

You using KaZaA Lite? or atleast anti-spyware one....
PLus look for a program(3ed party) called FastTrack Accelerater. It finds more sources for you're downloads (Thus, speeding them up)

I believe I'm using regular Kazaa, not Kazaa lite. I using Kazaa in California. Does California has limitations?

No, I'm in CA, and I get about 70kb/s++ on some peoples, it all depends on the uploader mostly, you can have a freakin' optical fiber connection and download at .9kb/s... it's how fast the person can upload it to you.

KaZaa Lite is working just fine for me, given my dialup connection. I connect at between 46 to 52 bps, and when I'm on KaZaa I always ask for more sources for downloading. It works great for me. I live in the great state of Illinois.

Thanks for everyones help.
I installed at kazaalite.com.
That seems to have done the trick. I can now download at high speeds again.
