Install the software from Kazaa, make sure you do not allow it to install
|
|
it's promotional software, install Kazaa normally. This guide applies to
|
|
Kazaa 1.7 or higher.

Cydoor Dummy File
|
|
-----------------
|
|
Cydoor is Kazaa's method of ad delivery, and if you kill the files it will
|
|
lead to Kazaa not functioning properly. First thing you need to do is
|
|
delete the existing cydoor files, here's how:
|
|
- Open Regedit (start - run.. - regedit - ok)
|
|
- go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\
|
|
- Delete "Cydoor"
|
|
- go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\
|
|
- Delete "Cydoor"
|
|
- Now browse your computer, go to C:\%WINDIR%\System (System32 on NT)
|
|
- Delete files cd_clint.dll, cd_htm.dll
|
|
|
|
Now go online and download the dummy cd_clint.zip file:
|
|
http://www.cexx.org/cd_clint.zip
|
|
http://www.geocities.com/poiuyt_1940/cd_clint.zip
|
|
http://www.geocities.com/subdimember/cd_clint.zip
|
|
|
|
Once downloaded, unzip the cd_clint.dll into Kazaa's installation directory, OR
|
|
unzip it to C:\%WINDIR%\System\ or C:\%WINDIR%\System32\ (NT4/2K/XP).
|
|
|
|
|
|
------------------
|
|
STOP KAZAA POP-UPS
|
|
------------------
|
|
Even though the dummy file is in place, this does not stop pop-ups that occur
|
|
in Kazaa..this requires modifying HOSTS file in Windows. To do this:
|
|
- In Win9x/ME/XP go to C:\Windows\Hosts
|
|
- Open HOSTS with a text editor
|
|
- add the following line: 0.0.0.0 desktop.kazaa.com, under 127.0.0.1 localhost
|
|
- In WINNT/2K go to C:\WINNT\System32\Drivers\etc\HOSTS
|
|
- add the following line: 0.0.0.0 desktop.kazaa.com, under 127.0.0.1 localhost
|
|
- Save the file
|
|
|
|
Congratulations, your Kazaa is now Spyware and Ad-Free.
