Some early spyware (auerate I think) was notorious for de-stabalising a system. Ad-aware can be used to find and remove spyware on your system:

while you can aparently download something called "kazaa-lite" which does not include spyware. I dont use Kazaa myself so i dont have a link.

ON the music for BG2 - it is possible to extract it but the process is somewhat arcane. You need to convert the files yourself and its a pain in the butt, cos most of the tools arent available. Which leads us into the realms of C-coding your own and for most people its too much effort.
