Kazaa download backup
I am currently backing up all of my files in an effort to reformat and clean up my cluttered box. I find myself stuck in quite a dilemma, however. There are about 50-100 downloads currently running in kazaa, but I rarely get decent connections for every file I download, and they are typically large. Is there a way to backup partial downloads to restart after I reformat? Just saving the actual downloadXXXXX...XXX.dat file doesn't do it. If anyone knows, help me out! Thanks a lot!

There's probably an index file that is keeping track of all of your downloads, somewhere within the Kazaa directory. I doubt they'd keep that somewhere else, like the registry (although it's possible). Try reinstalling Kazaa on a different machine and then copy all the files in the Kazaa directory (not just the incoming/temp dirs) and see if you can restart your transfers.

I was able to move my downloads to a cd and then afterwards, place them back in the shared folder. It worked for me for some reason. I run Kazaa Lite K++.

I never run that many downloads at one time. Maybe im totally wrong here but if find that if I concentrate on 10-20 d-loads at a tie i get them faster. There was a few times when my girlfriend was looking for music & went al click happy on everything resulting in everything slowing to a crawl.
It took weeks to download all the stuff she wanted when usually, in the space of a week I can get a couple of movies & a heffload of tunes by only setting a few dloads at a time.
