Hello

I do't know how it has happened but my e-mail address is in the Opt-In list. This means I receive countless unwanted e-mails. It is a nuisance and takes up a lot of my time to remove them. I live in UK and majority of these e-mails come form USA based organisations.

How do I remove my name from this Opt-In List. Any help. Thank you.

Regards

im guessing he means the place where you could type your email address in the options - my kazaa lite of earlier versions - the bit where it said: enter email to subscrive to kazaa newsletter (dont do this!)

it has been removed in the newer versions but the only way to stop it will be to click the unsubcribe link at the bottom of most spam emails...

Your worst nightmare.....junk mail galore in your email box or home mailbox........always opt-out in some fashion or another, but why would someone opt-in, :unsure:

Maybe someone opt-in his email and now he gets spam out the woohoo ;)
