Umm everytime I download a song off kazaa it always plays fine for like 10 seconds then does this wierd noise for the rest of the song and messes it up. Its getting on my nerves. Does anyone know what this is about?

That's RIA files, so when you download them they know your IP address, they use it to track piraters, and then you get a lawsuit.

No, that dosen't mean they're tracking him if he got one. They only track people who download and share the most files. He's proably fine. And yes, I suggest you use KazzaLite to stay safe from those _unprintable_s.

Nope this is not true...they dont go mainly for the big time file-sharers...i remember not too long ago they filed a lawsuit against this one 8th grader(i believe) girl and all she had downloaded were a couple of TV show theme songs.

why use something that put up sirens to let the riaa know your sharing mp3's.

wanna know something i have _never_ used kazaa in my life. wanna know why? because you can find the music faster somewhere else with faster download speeds.
