A few days ago, PeerGuardian discovered the unfortunate turn of events that have led to the attempted destruction of Kazaa Lite K++ by Sharman Networks, maker of the Kazaa software. The program file is getting scarce to find and it's viability on the Fasttrack network is in question. In a follow up interview with RatFaced, the Kazaa Lite forum mod and IRC admin Jazz, PeerGuardian gets some personal thoughts:

What do you think about the Kazaa lite shut-down?
Razz
" K-lite may have suffered a setback but it is far from over, I personally believe that Sharman kicked themselves when they went after k-lite, this is the one excuse that k-lite has needed to act up. Now I'm not gonna say i know for certain what is going to happen in the next few weeks and months, but I do not see k-lite dying out like this."
RatFaced
'K-lite isn't shut down - We're evolving. We have always supported P2p in general, only concentrating on k-lite as Fasttrack was the largest network. Sharmans programs are notoriously crap, so if we don't give a decent k-lite, someone else will. '

So you think this is just a setback?
Razz
"Well yes, I mean look at the developers we have on k-lite and look at the things they have accomplished, I seriously doubt that they are going to let Sharman shut them down.
Sharman made the grievous error of killing their own network when they attempted to rid fasttrack of k-lite, as most of the genuine users and sharers tend to use k-lite." |
Well, sounds like the Kazaa Lite folks aren't going to give up just yet. Of course, these individuals are just giving their opinions on the situation and they can't predict the future, but maybe Kazaa Lite can survive.
