Kazaa prob

[N3R0]

Kazaa keeps loading on startup and i get the kazaa home page even though i specificaly asked it not to when i instsalled it.Ive tried reinstalling it,which did't work.
Is there anyway to stop it without disabling it in msconfig>startup

thanks

erm, try this:

load kazaa, tools menu, options.

make sure you're on the users tab and deselect the option 'Launch KaZaa automatically'

as for the kazaa homepage, just load ie, then tools, internet options (maybe view, internet options in old versions of ie) and then select 'Use Blank' or type in whatever you want for your homepage...

p.s. you can change your sig now - she went months ago

Thanks m8, but i already did that and the fcuker still launches.

p.s i was kinda getting used to seeing it m8, didn't want to but i guess it's gotta go sometime.:bleh:

erm, in that case it's either in programs -> startup, or check the following registry key:

hklm\software\microsoft\windows\currentversion\run

check runonce & runonceex as well just in case..
