The same thing happened to me the other day when I was trying to download the new Kings of Leon "Molly's Chambers." About 17 seconds into the song it started doing this horrible screeching sound. (Scared the piss out of me, too.) Try clicking on different filenames (scroll to the right when searching for files), or if that doesn't work, wait a day or two. I did that and the latest one I downloaded works fine.

ok to clear this up

RIAA has spread mp3s with annoying "noises" in them to stop p2p (peer2peer [for the slow kids]) users from downloading and sharing them, but the common KaZaA (KMD) user doesn't know a thing about it so, they keep on sharing them thinking it's their computer messing up or so on..

im guessing their is a program that the riaa uses to cut out parts and replace wit the noise

the only tips i could give u is to get the newst kazaa lite vers (K++ and kazaa lite have merged)

and to use the search filters, like enter the name of the artists,bitrate,qaulity AND most important - now the files wit more ppl are bad

are the hashes for the two files the same?
if you're unsure how to hash a file, check the f.a.q. above
