Hi,
I recently downloaded and installed Clean KMD 2.6 a few weeks ago. It has been working perfectly since a few days ago.
Everytime I try searching now, I get the message, "Kazaa has caused an Error in KERNEL32.DLL and will shut down". Then Kazaa closes.
To resume downloads works fine.
I hope anyone can help.
I also uninstall, reinstalled it too...no work :-(

I get the feeling that you're using something like Windows 98, because 'KERNEL32.DLL' as part of '98, was notorious for crashing when illegal characters were parsed into it within filenames.
Later versions of the DLL check for such characters.
Kazaa is causing the problem, but gets away with it, courtesy of later DLL versions.
The solution ? . . I think you may need to upgrade to a newer OS, perhaps Windows 2000 Pro.

Hmm, Kazaa was working perfectly before.
Anyway to fix this apart from buying a new OS?
BTW, I'm running a P1000, 256MB RAM, Windows ME.

Irony= I have Windows ME and I've been running kazaa for about 8 months beau-tifly until today, I have about 6 errors, one of which is Kernal 32, I will atempt to Defrag my PC and I'll get back to you.
