I think it may be a zip file, you will need a program to unzip the file so that you can use it. I would suggest you do a search on kazaa for winrar, winace or winzip. Any one these should do the job.

It could also be an ISO (cd image) of the cd, if it has a .cue and a .bin file then you would need something like Nero to burn that to a disc, if it is a "normal" iso then you would still need someting like WinISO or Nero (Nero is preferrable imo)

Good luck, and Happy Sharing

A dll file? How big is this file you downloaded? It may be fake because dll's are not programs

39,171 kb

is that too small ive never downloaded a prog of kazaa so i dont usually pay attention to the size of the file when downloading normally

'fake' is that just something ppl put in there to piss other ppl off or does it have a function?

39,171 kb is WAY too small! Should be very roughly 500MB.
