Another solution would be to use your anti-virus scan engine, I believe all av let you specify an extra.dat file, there you would put a piece of kazaa.exe. When found, it's treated like a virus (erased or blocked). You can do this with all p2p software out there. Altough you should get a pieze of kazaa.exe that's the same among all versions.
Anyway, blocking port 1214 is the most logical way.
