I dug around until I found that the information they were probably referring to was the Take It Off link which has their own instructions on how to turn off file-sharing in KaZaA .
… I ended up emailing the Security group at the University of Chicago asking them if they could add a redirect for that page and cc’d webmaster@musicunited.org (guessing that might be a valid address), but three days later:

With multiple websites devoted to certain topics, I was looking for something like the croissanga plug-in that would automatically link to posts from other locations in one place.

I’ve finally moved my personal blog over to its own domain name - jenniferl.net - and to deal with my multiple blogs for Technology and Travel , I’ve found an add-on called FeedWordPress which will automatically import any entries I’ve written at other sites as posts to this site. I also made some changes so that comments would collect where the original post is published; for any syndicated posts (also categorized as “Syndicated”), a link to the comment page on the original site will show up.

I attended MacWorld and held the MacBook Air in my hands and I have to admit that it is one fine piece of engineering. I initially thought that there was a lot more material under the laptop hidden by the curved edges a la their previous version of the iPod Nano, but it really [...]

It had been awhile since I played with handwriting recognition. I remember the Newton and when I had to learn the special alphabet for the Palm III, my first PDA. I tried out my colleague’s Lenovo X61 tablet PC and was very impressed; I purposely wrote messy words, yet it still recognized my [...]

Internet2 (aka I2), a high speed research network with over 200 universities, can also be used for transferring non-research related data like music or movie files.
In April 2005, when I heard that the RIAA was going after people on Internet2, I remember asking my colleague, “How the hell did they [...]
