You can use the rep_mime_type acl - just remember that
you will have to block it in http_reply_access and not
http_access.
One other thing you can try - turn on logging of MIME
headers to see if Kazaa uses a special MIME type, or
maybe something in the UA string. Then block based on
that.
You might also want to consider putting Kazaa into a
very slow delay pool instead of blocking it. If you block
it users might try to work around it, but if you just slow
it down then they might assume a network problem and give up.

Kazaa does put a lot of effort into making the software
hard to block. You're starting from scratch, fighting an
uphill battle against a moving target. Good luck.
