Whatever that program or file is, you do not need it!
Many files downloaded from Kazaa are either bogus, contain viruses,
or are illegal copies of copy-righted material. Some files downloaded
from Kazaa only serve the purpose to install unwanted advertising and
porn dialers in your computer. Best advice: get rid of Kazaa!

Hi Daniel,
Check the kazaa download window, if the file is still listed there in =
either upload or downloads, you will need to clear it from there. Then =
open your media player, clear it from the playlist. Then try renaming =
the file.
