uninstall your codecs and then download the latest kazaa lite code pack and install it. This would more than likely solve your problem. download it from the kazaa lite web site.

And re wire your plug , check for lightning storms in the area , brush your teeth and have a good nights rest ...

Do you seriously believe that masses of us have suddenly simultaneously developed a codec problem that means we cannot listen to mp3s, a standard that does not even need any codec external to the most basic of media players ? Are you completely mad?

I would love to see an explanation of the files now having pretty different lengths when you check all the different sources . That seems pretty strange to me as I would have thought they'd have had different hashes. Surly if the sources are from different sized files then the end result is enevitably corrupted?

Yeah, I have encountered some files with screeches... not much, one Good Charlotte one... and also Dido- White Flag - every file I have downloaded were fakes of it... look... just with one search -

That is a very interesting screenshot Simply Disaster because it shows many sources with the same names pumping out this rubbish onto the system , presumably from the same comp. I mean, who has 5 copies of the same file on their machine?. Notice how they all have really dubious user names as if they have been made up by someone who is trying too hard to look like a normal Kazaa user. None of them say the simple kazaaliteuser@kazaa or such like but are instead sexylexxy etc.

I think we can see what is going on here , a mass co-ordinated introduction of severely corrupted files .

If that was their username, then that kind of explains why they were sharing fake files. They should just get off and leave us all alone.
