Kazaa users with the fastest Internet connections
and the most powerful computers are automatically designated
as Supernodes. A Supernode contains a list of some of the files
made available by other Kazaa users and where they are located.
When you perform a search, your Kazaa first searches the nearest
Supernode to you, and then sends you immediate results. This
first Supernode then refers your search to other Supernodes
and so on.
This process is designed to make searching as fast as possible
and means that your computer will never search through all
the files made available by Kazaa users, only through the files
that have been indexed by the Supernodes to which you are
connected.

Can't find that file - use the new search agent
Can't find that file? You can instruct Kazaa v’s new Search Agent to search every 30 minutes for up to 24 hours.
As long as the user sharing the file is still online when you return, you will be able to download the found file.
