Is Kazaa legal?

ANSWER

Kazaa is actually a legal program but because of the way it's used, its developing company and several users have already been sued for copyright violation.

Uploading or downloading works protected by copyright without the authority of the copyright owner is an infringement of the copyright owner's exclusive rights of reproduction and/or distribution. Anyone found to have infringed a copyrighted work may be liable for statutory damages up to $30,000 for each work infringed and, if willful infringement is proven by the copyright owner, that amount may be increased up to $150,000 for each work infringed.

$100M worth of damages previously settled by Kazaa in favor of recording companies, private individuals who obtain through Kazaa mp3s and other copyrighted files have also been sued by parties in interest, monetary payments averaging $3,000 were paid by several people. In particular, a single mother had to pay $9,250 for each of the 24 songs they had accused her of stealing.

ANSWER

Yes. Kazaa is a legal program. However, the uses it is primarily put to are not. Downloading copyrighted music, videos, and software without the permission of the author / artist is illegal. Due to it being used primarily for this purpose, the creators of Kazaa have been sued for being a sort of "enabler" for piracy. Really, though, this charge could just as easily be levied against Internet Explorer or Mozilla Firefox, since they also allow you to download files regardless of their legality.

ANSWER(best)

Since 2008 there has been a new owner of Kazaa who made unlimited,unrestricted, and safe downloads at a monthly phone bill fee. It is now completely legal (for now).

What is Nocus Networks LLC and should I be concerned about their constant attempts to connect to my computer?

Are you using Torrent software? Nocus Network LLC are found on popular ipblocklists, so if you are using PeerBlock software (as any Torrent user should be) then any traffic between your pc and their server will be stopped. They are known to engage in anti-p2p activities.

That is not exactly true, this company has been attacking one of my servers steady for a few days and they are systematically testing it trying to gain access. I host business websites and there is no activity on the server to suggest they should be doing this. Their actions are focused and YES you should be concerned.

The original answer was exactly true, but perhaps not the entire story. The company, based in Pheonix, Arizona, are a little mysterious and publish no information about themselves whatsoever, so are assumed to be some kind of "industry police" paid for by companies interested in protecting intellectual property rights. Probing systems is what they do. Probing is not illegal. Gaining unauthorized access is illegal. Certainly their actions are focused and you should be concerned. You cannot stop them doing what they do, but you can block their attempts to access your machine. Information leakage is what they are looking for and it is up to you to prevent that leakage. Naturally, if you have nothing to hide then you have nothing to fear - let them have a good look and verify you as "clean" if you wish. Personally I hate spies.

How do you add AOL favorites to Mozilla Firefox?

To Have access to AOL Favorites in Mozilla:

Method 1:

Download the AOL tool bar from http://toolbar.aol.com/?ncid=AOLAOF00020000001019

and download the toolbar while you are on firefox. In the right corner of the toolbar will be a sign in box, sign in, and then press "shift + ctrl+f", without the quotations or from the top menu "View, Sidebars, AOL Favorite Plus. This will give you access to AOL favorites when signed on.

Method 2: Go to myaol.com and sign in. Next, go to the "favorites tab."

--If you then want the favorites without signing on, again, then press "ctrl+D" to put the website in your Mozilla Bookmarks (Favorites).

Method 3: Spend $30 on a retarded product that does this for you. Please ignore this method, it is a waste of money.

What BitTorrent program should you use?

I have tested over 20 bittorrent programs and they all run at about the same speeds when properly set up.

I would rate Vuze and uTorrent as the two best. They both have all the basic features that are needed, excellent support and are leaders in the bittorrent field.

Vuze is larger and uses a good amount of RAM. It has many more features available in the program and through its plugins. The latest being its "Devices" tab, which will convert (if necessary) and transfer to other devices such as iPod, XBox, Ps3 etc.. There is also the Vuze download platform , which offers legal downloads and an outlet for independent media producers.

uTorrent is the smallest bittorrent client (263KB) and uses the least amount of RAM of any bittorrent client. Yet it has all the basic features needed for torrenting. Their latest advance is the introduction of uTP transfers, which make throttling by ISPs difficult, if not impossible.

Both uTorrent and Vuze have excellent support through their FAQs, forums, guides (uTorrent) and Wiki (Vuze).

See the related link below, Best Free BitTorrent Client, for more info and links to downloads and set up guides.

Neighbors are stealing your internet you must set up your current wireless network to be password protected and disconnect filesharing from their Xbox 360 to your computer how would you do this?

You have to choices. The first one is to use so called MAC filter. For that you have to know MAC addresses for all your network devices connected to router. The MAC filter can be used in two ways: Black list and White list. Black list describes which adapter should not be allowed (this logic is called - everybody except specified). White list defines address which only have excess to the router. It's much better to use White list because it's harder to trick.

Another option is to use security for your network. When you use secured networks you have to enter a password which is defined by router owners (you). Just log in your router change the administrative password, go in wireless settings and enable a secured network, choose password and you are protected.
