Knowing that KaZaA is crammed with spyware, I downloaded and installed Kazaa, then immediately ran Ad-Aware on it. Sure enough, Ad-aware identified and removed 6 pieces of spyware from my computer that were not there prior to the Kazaa installation.
After removing the identified spyware, I attempted to run Kazaa. The program gave me an error message, then aborted. It said something to the effect of “you have removed files that Kazaa needs to run, please re-install”.
Now what? I will NOT allow spyware on my machine.
Oh and and by the way, the Kazaa website claims that they don’t use spyware…uh huh, sure.
