Hi, I'm totally new to Kazaa (have K-Lite++2.4.3 in my system) & have already "stumbled" my way to a lot of d/load errors. I'm finally printing all the "Help" notes to study them. It's cleared up a lot of misunderstood notions & helped to understand many others. Have 1 specific question I need urgent from somebody (ANYONE!!) about one aspect of 'Corrupted database files'. The 'Help' section says to find & delete ALL these db files (K-Lite will create new ones upon the next start-up). HOWEVER, it advises that you will lose "all file descriptions that you give to your shared files". So, BEFORE I go ahead & do this deletion, can someone (ANYONE !!) explain to me EXPLICITLY, CLEARLY, UNAMBIGUOUSLY just what sort of "file descriptions" is referred to?? Thanx so much in advance.

any type of editing you did to your files in klite, such as name integrety, author, title etc.

Thanx, 'Musleman', for your piece of enlightenment. I need just a bit more info on this. What about the ORIGINAK info encoded into, say the music track, like: song title, artist, play duration, music category, etc. Does all this originally-encoded info ALSO disappear, or just whatever I might have added/edited on the files themselves? Also, the letters "mIRC" appeared a couple of times in my system tool bar during the problems. Do you know what this is? (I couldn't open it, so I had to right-click to close it). Appreciate your help, thanx again
