Hi

Have you managed to delete *all* references to Kazaa from your system?

First of all, try a search in Windows Explorer for 'kazaa' - without the quotes. Delete any references to the Recycle Bin. Also search for a file called kmd.exe - again delete it to the RB.

I would also suggest deleting any references to Kazaa from your Registry. Open the Registry and search for all occurrences of 'kazaa' - again without the quotes.

**If you do manually edit the Registry, please back it up first** A very good program for doing this is ERunt:

You might like to look in msconfig to see if there is any reference to kazaa in there and uncheck that.
