Default mp3 problems with kazaa

Has anyone been having problems with Mp3's dowloaded from kazaa lately, like after 40 seconds it becomes all scratchy and stuff, like corrupted? I downloaded One, Mysterious Ways and Beautiful day from U2 and then a couple of Bon Jovi songs and the same thing happened, my other Mp3's work fine...any ideas??

Try to restart your PC.. sometimes it helps.. but well, it happened to me before those last worms began to crawl around.. so I don't think it's their fault...

I guess, I was also wondering if it could be a virus, but if you guys didn't have any problems after I guess it's not...maybe it's the encoding I don't know, I'll just keep on trying, but I reckon it's getting pretty anoying, specially with downloading movies, do any of you know how to get the right movie? i've been trying to download TAXI 3 for ages now, you know the french movie with the white 406, but I keep getting the fight club instead or something else...

The corrupted songs are probably seeded by RIAA. I've seen some 30sec sample looped to look like the real thing.

Yeah, I've downloaded the wrong video also but luckily it only happened to me once. Then I got the Taxi 3 the second time. I think you also need luck to download movies from Kazaa other than search results. Coz sometimes the filename and the title are the same but the content is different Keep on trying man!

I think it's dvd version...coz the audio is clear but the video is a bit darker at the starting of the movie.
