Kazaa

[Jake]

I know this is off topic somewhat but I have a question about Kazaa. I have
noticed that I cannot download an item without having administrator
privileges on my computer. In a limited account it simply doesn't work and
comes up with "failed" in the status column. Is there any way I can make it
work with a limited account?

There are good reasons that you cannot install without
admin privileges. One of them is to prevent stupid users
from installing crap like Kazaa. Whoever set up your user
account must have realized you would try to find a way to
muck up your pc. Go find that person and tell him or her
thank you.

Kazaa is a bad thing, guranteed to fill your pc with mucho
virus, get away from it.

Hi Jake,

Thank you for posting!

I suspect that Kazaa need access HKEY_Local_Machine registry key or some
system folders and then got Access Denied, so it cannot finish the download
program.

You may use RunAs command to start the Kazaa in Administrator account if
you want.

I cannot access www.kazaa.com here, you may visit their web site to see if
there is any information is helpful.

Have a good day!

Thanks & Regards,

You keep downloading from Kazaa and that won't be the only thing that won't
work.
