Ditto For me!!

On a personal note, Kazaa is a dangerous program. I keep getting
ad-aware/spy-ware stuff and I do not know where it comes from. I have norton
anti-virus and one out of every ten programs that are downloaded has a
virus!!

If you read their license agreement they can install third party software on
your computer.

My mistake along these lines was the "weatherbug" software touted by a
local TV station, which sits on your task bar and chirps when there is a
weather bulletin, and lets you bring up any forecast you want. It also
installs "gator," which manages lots of pop-up ads and tracks web activity.

Kazaa music download software has made computers virtually unusable
for three of my clients.
