    To follow up my mid Oct post:

    KaZaA is still launching ads in the local zone. KaZaA was contacted 6 Jan
    03 via their bug report page.

    "Pop-up ads are being spawned from the local hard disk. This puts them in
    the local zone. Scripts running in this zone can be harmful."

    I am now awaiting their response.

    To immunize KaZaA from this defect I have removed the permissions from the
    directory it launches ads from. This has a nice side effect of not showing
    ads. The directory to secure is: %WinDir%\AdCache
