Change Speaker Setup Tip:
These days they come in every shape size
and configuration. Windows XP can optimize the way that
these speakers are used so that your computer's sound
is optimized for your personal setup.
To choose the correct speaker setup, open
the Control Panel from the Windows XP Start Menu and then
open Sounds, Speech and Audio Devices, then Sounds and
Audio Devices. In the window that appears, on the Volume
tab, click the Advanced button. A new window will pop
up: on the Sounds tab, look near the bottom for the Speaker
Setup dropdown box. From that list, choose the configuration
that best matches your actual speaker configuration. Click
OK then OK then close the Control Panel to complete the
change.
FileShare
lets you connect to others and share files on many different
servers. It is jam packed with tons of features, support,
and a great interface. Searching - Find any file, mp3,
avi, mov, avi, or otherwise with the search window. Tailor
your search to download off of specific connections, file
size, or preset video, music, or audio files. 
The
Traffic function lets you monitor the progress of your
downloads and see what other people are downloading from
you. Adding a Euro twist, KaZaA's interface is available
in French, German, and Spanish, in addition to English.
