Well,
Im new to computers and I hope I am asking inThe right
place. I have been trying to download Kazaa which my
brother has on his computer with no problems whatsoever.
I tried to 'open' the file and also 'save' to disc.....It
does download but when I try to open the file an error
message comes up saying: ex:
C:\documents and
settings\angelosmith\mycomputer\kazaa.exe IS NOT A VALID
WIN32 APPLICATION..........I do not know what to do.
This is a brand new computerthat came with Windows XP
already installed. WHAT AM I DOING WRONG? Can anyone
please help me or direct me in the direction I must go. I
apologize for being a dunce.
Sincerely,
Angelo

Angelo;
Best option is to skip Kazaa.
Distant second option is to download again.
That error occurs primarily for one of two reasons:
1. Bad download
2. Attempting to install a 64 bit application on a 32 bit computer,
you have a 32 bit computer.
