Especially since the current k-lite does the following
a ) blocks the RIAA IP addresses
b ) prevents people obtaining file lists from you, but does not prevent searches for specific files.
c ) closes the port usually used to indicate the presence of p2p software
d ) has no spyware
heh

I hate to be a party pooper on the "we cant get bum k'd by the RIAA" but we can  they can still do mean things to you and i from the states, they just pass your details over to scotland yard, who then can choose to prosectute you for copywrite infringments, thats part of my job, to track people who "hack" and deface websites, for the police... odd how most of my workmates download gigs of illegal stuff a day  not i ofcourse ;-)
anyway, the IP blocking systems dont work, the RIAA work on a huge range or dynamic IPs, using provided access from companies you wouldnt expect to see, most artist recording sites have granted access too, so you could see snoop.metalica.com in your list if they get that bored.

If the list is public does this mean it's easier to find someone sharing out files (never used Kazza so excuse ignorance!)
