just thought i'd make a little tutorial for people so they know exactly how to use this app

firstly, you need to identify the partial download (dat) file you are trying to preview. to do this, use kdat. this will allow you to see which dat file you need to use.
once you have identified the dat file, copy it to the same directory as you extracted the avipreviewc program to. to keep things easy, i have avipreviewc on my desktop.
once you have copied the file, change the name to something which is easy to type, for example, movie.avi
this is where it gets a little more complicated for novice users.
open command prompt (dos)
then in dos change to the directory where you have both the partial download and the avipreviewc program. do this by using the cd command
(e.g. to change from c:\documents and settings\A L to my desktop, all i have to type is "cd desktop")

now, type in "avipreviewc movie.avi movie2.avi" (without the inverted commas(you will have to change "movie.avi" to whatever you renamed the partial download to. also, "movie2.avi" can be anything you like, however, remember the .avi extension))
just press enter and the program will go to work at creating the new movie file.

the new movie file will be created in the same directory as the partial download file and the avipreviewc program.
it should contain all the downloaded information you have from kazaa and should be playable in most media players.

all this to preview a movie
