138290 2003-04-24 02:41:00 After a session on kazaa i often end up with a few Dat files amongst the mp3s'.
What are these for and can i safely just delete them?
TIA

138291 2003-04-24 02:59:00 The dat files are mp3s/files that you have selected to download but haven't been fully downloaded yet.

Check in your download window in kazaa whether there are some things that haven't finished downloading.

You can delete the dat files only when kazaa is closed. Doing it through kazaa is probably the safest way, to find out what each of the dat files are, and if you still need them or not.

138293 2003-04-24 19:58:00 I also have a theory that files that are open when the download as finished may not rename correctly to there new name as they are already open, although agreeable this is speculation and may need someone to test. Captive (3159)
