How to uninstall Kazaa?

[Bobby77501]

The normal way to uninstall Kazaa doesn't work and I've heard that there's a
special way to do this (perhaps another program). Anybody familiar with
this issue?

I removed Kazaa from a clients computer and if I recall I
manually deleted every folder and file associated with it,
including registry entries. You may have to kill some
processes first with the task manager or a third party
program like processexplorer, but you can be rid of it.
I would do a serious virus scan, Kazaa shares more than
stolen music files.

This is the website you heard of..
http://www.spywareinfo.com/~merijn/ The removal tool is
called Kazaabegone.
After you run it, d/load the free spyware program -
Spybot Search & Destroy - from http://security.kolla.de/
and run this also. It will find anything that kazaabegone
may miss.
