Hello! This question would be best placed in the Other Software Forum. Also, if you have error messages, please state them here in exact detail.

If you are using Kazaa then you prabably have spyware infesting your system. Go to the following site, download Startup List and post the results back here:

Thanks for your help Jim I tried that did not work my songs that are ready too download all say queued but they wont download any suggestions

Did you run Startup List at the site I posted? Because if you are running Kazaa I can almost guarantee that there is spyware in your system. If you ran Startup List can you please post it here so we can see if there is anything bad in your system?

Jim as you can tell I am realy stupid when it comes too computers how can i post my computer results here

 

[Rob824]

I did run start up list also.

After you run Startup List you can post it here simply by copy and pasting it here where you type your message.

If I were you, I'd dump kazaa and download Winmx ...

 

[pyritechips]

Yes Kath- thx for the reminder. If you clean out spyware but keep Kazaa. it will reload spyware. The other alternative is Kazaalite. I like WinMX but lately it seems as if it has a smaller return on searches. I get a list of 200 results with only 2 users online. WinMX shoud list only people online, as huge lists of people offline are not helpful and only confuse the list.

Thats really strange Jim ... I don't have any probs with it at all ... and this girl is an MP3 downloadin' fool ... LOL

 

[pyritechips]

Then maybe I search for weird and freaky stuff, not mainstream tunes!

But I atill recommend Kazaalite- it has a much better search result record.

chatting with you guys made me think of trying somthing so i downloaded Winxp too see if i could down load music from their and like I suspected I cant I get the music too where it says loading or queued and that is where it stops any suggestions anyone?

 

[Jonesiegirl]

Rob... let me ask you this. The version of kazaa that you're using, is it the ONLY install of kazaa you've done or used?

 

[pyritechips]

Before you download anything else and complicate the issue, can you please post the startup list?
