How to use K-Sig to download files (hash)

A Sig2Dat hash looks like this for example:

File: Friends - 101 - Pilot.avi
Length: 117977088 Bytes, 115212KB
UUHash: =S8hsFRuHtrQFq58jEhj+ofMudZI=

To download this file, do the following:

1) Select the whole hash (all three lines!) and copy it
2) Start K-Sig.
3) In the menu click on 'File' and select 'Paste from Clipboard'.

or

1) Start K-Sig.
2) In the menu click on 'File' and select 'Enter Hash Manually'.
3) Fill in the values supplied in the hash. File size must be the size in Bytes. UUHash must be everything behind UUHash:. In the example above it would be =S8hsFRuHtrQFq58jEhj+ofMudZI=

4) If you did it correctly, then a .dat file should have been created by K-Sig
5) Restart K-Lite to make the file show up in the Traffic window of K-Lite

Note: K-Sig also has an option to send the hash directly to K-Lite. See File > Program Options > 'Open QuickLinks in Kazaa'. In that case all you have to do is the first three steps. The file will be added to the Traffic window directly and you don't have to restart K-Lite.

UUHash: =S8hsFRuHtrQFq58jEhj+ofMudZI=

To download this file, do the following:

1) Click on the link
2) K-Sig will create a .dat file in your download folder of K-Lite
3) Restart K-Lite so that the file will show up in the Traffic window of K-Lite

Note: K-Sig also has an option to open Quicklinks directly in K-Lite. See File > Program Options > 'Open QuickLinks in Kazaa'. In that case, all you have to do is the first step. The file will be added to the Traffic window directly and you don't have to restart Kazaa Lite.

4) The files will appear in the K-Sig program.

8) Paste (press [Ctrl] + [v]) the data into the message area of the topic you created.

10) You can add some additional information about the files or just submit your topic.

Why is the file size displayed as 0 KB when I click on a QuickLink?

This is normal when you add downloads directly to the K-Lite traffic window. The correct file size will be displayed once the first source (a person who shares that file) is found by K-Lite.
