Why in the world would Microsoft have Kazaa listed as
a "erase tracks" item when it's one of the biggest
spyware/adware installers out there?
 
Windows AntiSpyware may prompt you to remove some peer-to-peer (P2P) file
sharing programs. If you choose to remove such a program, Microsoft Windows
AntiSpyware deletes the entire contents of the Program Files directory that
relates to the P2P program. Because some P2P programs store downloaded files
in a default directory under Program Files, this might remove all files
downloaded through the file-sharing program. For example, KaZaA stores .exe
and .dll files at C:\Program Files\Kazaa. Downloaded files are stored at
C:\Program Files\Kazaa\My Shared Folder. If you use Windows AntiSpyware to
remove KaZaA, all files and folders under C:\Program Files\Kazaa are
removed. If you have installed any P2P file sharing programs, we recommend
that you make a backup copy of your downloaded files before running Windows
AntiSpyware.
