<div class="IPBDescription">help out the community!</div> put it on your favorite P2P network. kazaa, or what have you. even limit the upload so that it doesn't impact your NS too much. maybe add 10-30 latency. but it'll result in faster distrubution of this much sought after client file!
help out the community and let other ppl P2P it off ya.
i know i will.
cheers!

heheh, yeah, but the most popular, and most user friendly, is P2P networks. Kazaa Lite isn't _that_ bad.
ok, i'm an utter and total nub. check my last points to see my nubness.
for some reason, my "BEST EVAR 23 TURRENT" strategy was VERY poorly received. <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->
soo, couldya enlighten a nub on how to do what you mentioned? i just put it in the kazaa shared folder....
If you are going to download NS v2.0 FROM KAZAA or any P2P program that can't be trusted, MAKE SURE YOU SCAN THE FILE BEFORE EXECUTING IT. This is for your own safety. I know you guys want to be helpful and all but kazaa and other P2P program users have been known to include viruses and trojans along with popular exe files. SO BEWARE@!!!
Is bit torrent always slow, or is just that all the files I have ever downoaded were from russia?
If someone knows how to set up a torrent link, please do so and post it on these forums once the file becomes available. I'd be happy to download from a torrent, and help out the community by doing so.
As for bit torrent, I don't have it or use it, so mirror it is for me.
Weeks later, a mirrior is more reliable for getting your file.
I'll be using bittorrent, rather than spyware ridden kazaa, on launch day.
i just trust bt more than kazaa <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif'><!--endemo-->

If you download kazaa lite, it has no spyware. I dont use my kazaa lite though for the fear od viruses. My freind got the kletz just from downloading a 1 song threw kazaa.
The virus took over its whole harddrive and he had to wipe it clean. <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif'><!--endemo-->
Im too afraid to wipe my HD, hence i dont use kazaa alot.....
when it starts up, go to the butten "my kazaa lite" find the file (should be under software or other), and right click and do properties. there you go, name the file, give it keywords, rate it, etc
evil people and their little viruses <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif'><!--endemo-->
I beleive Comprox (or another mod) said he did a test of BT and loved it, so he'd try to get a BT release. It was in a previous BT thread.
Hooks up to the Kazaa/Grokster/Morpheus network.
NO SPYWARE/ADWARE. (thank heavens)
Hides your ip and files from scanners (RIAA)
Has AVI preview (that actually works)
as well as built in search and download accelerators.

BitTorrent is also fine, but mostly underground and more foreign material than one likes.
And yes, I will also be sharing NS 2.0.
BTW, setting up a bittorrent tracker is much harder than most of you think. Downloading and sharing is easy, but there has to be a central computer that tracks clients. Running a tracker also sucks up a fair amount of CPU time and bandwidth. Sharing, however, encurs little overhead.

Hello boys and girls. Today we're going to talk about viruses. Viruses are bad, Mmmmkay? So, to stop Viruses, we used what is called an Anti-Virus. Now, since we have this neat little program like kazaa that lets us download anything you've ever heard of or had the time to think about, why don't we download ourselves a fresh copy of Norton Antivirus 2003 Professional with a free complimentary one year subscription to virus updates. That way we can get rid of all those nasty viruses, Mmmmkay? Remember, boys and girls, be safe, not stupid!! <!--emo&::marine::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/marine.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='marine.gif'><!--endemo-->
