I recently downgraded from a Cable modem to a 56k with AT&T WorldNet.
When I run Kazaa it connects okay, but as soon as I hit the search button the program closes and the icon disapears from the taskbar. This is the newest version of Kazaa.
There is no error message from Win XP or anything like that.
Does this sound like a ISP firewall problem not allowing me access to a port or a software

sorry, I missed the part about an ISP firewall. Ask the ISP if they block Kazaa.
