I would suggest using the gtk-gnutella (the kazaa kind of client for linux is called a P2P or peer to peer program.) it is a pretty straight forward RPM, and easy to install. It is also faster, but takes a while to get used to. I would suggest using it. ( there is also a poste about that search for installing xmule (it is an old post of mine... just scrool down through it, and u should be able to find all of the plugins linked there (by Taurus)) Just try Gtk-gnutella first. If not try looking up that post.
