MahRain draws our attention to beta version 2.6 of Kazaa. This heap of compiled code can share different types of files with other users. This release is from here to your computer and has the following search features:

NewSearch Features:

• Multiple simultaneous searches:
  Now, if you perform a new search your previous search will continue until it is complete. Each search you perform is displayed in a new “search tab” window. You can switch between the search result windows by clicking on the tabs at the top of the current search results window. Once you are finished with the results of a search, just click ‘X’ on the search tab to close it.
• Single Click File Download:
  Now files that are available for download can be accessed with a single click! Just select the “Download” button for the files you wish to download.
• Improved display of file data:
  When you click once on a line item within a search result, that file’s data (metadata) will appear in the ‘Info’ space above your search results. This data provides you with more information about the file you have selected before you decide whether or not to Preview or Download it.
