    because of trouble with kazaa shutting down pc i decided to put a shortcut to my DUN into startup along with kazaa, only now my system seems to be getting slower and slower, to the point of watching the torch wave right to left for a couplea minutes while trying to open recycle bin, why am i getting slower?


    running amd xp1600 with 384 ram

    Hello Verdi

    No if you have a new OS you should not have to "all" we did before.

    Just clean the internet and windows temps and run Adaware and Spybot (updated).

    These should be done say once a month or when you have some trouble or slow down.

    In you last message you said you had already done that. Were you responding to Redhamster or me? And is the problem fixed?

    Sorry late getting back to you but was away with family until late on Christmas eve.

    Mike

    Hi :)

    Sorry...Mike my last response was to redhamster, problem is fixed and have used refupdate for adaware, also in spybot my first scan i fixed everything it found, knowing if i have trouble with progs, at a later date i'll just re-install, but from now on i'll just fix the ones it checks at the top of the list. what say you yes or no?

    And please, never apologise for a late reply, if anyone values your help as much as i, there is never any need for apologies as our gratitude should always overwhelm your apologies for being late in helping out so immensely, (this last passage applies to the one and only daisy too, pass it on)

    Have a good Hol, and a great new year :)

    Great Verdi

    If you are using Kazaa lite you will have no problem from adaware or spybot.

    I always remove all they find.

    Again Merry Christmas.

    ad-aware Kaaza lite cd_clint.dll

    When you are running ad-aware with Kaaza lite be carefull
    not to remove cd_clint.dll. Otherwise Kaaza lite will not run.
    You can set ad-aware to ignore the file when you run ad-aware.
    The newer versions of ad-aware seem to miss the file.. My son warned me about this but did I listen ?

    you can check this out at www.doa2.host.sk/
