Can anybody recommend me a decent one please?

The only ones that I have managed to get just leave a fuzzing noise instead of converting the sound.

Oh, I've got CDex but that only rips them off CDs, I want to convert small WAV files that are already stored on my PC.

Thanks.

Sonic Foundry Acid Pro 3 or Music Match (http://www.musicmatch.com/)
Acid is better, but it is a expensive peice of software, so if you want a free one that gives almost perfect quiality, get music match.

I've found there's a lot of converters out there, most of which convert into the required 8-bit mono, etc.. .au format required for Java applets...

But few of them actually work in the Java applets after :(

Bloody slackers, can't be bothered to work out anything yourself...

It was all in code...

Mix it about a bit and you get:

dBpowerAMP Music Converter

See!

It's quite good though...

What was the one you found? ... I ran across quite a few a year or two back when I was searching for a .wav to .au converter, wherein I eventually stuck with GoldWave, but have been looking for a better converter ever since?

And you could stop being such a gimp...

Only idiots use Kazaa to download .exes as they're mainly full of viruses.

Sounds like CDex. It uses CDparanoia to rip the CD then can do lame VBR as you described, or OGG VBR, which is what I do. The benefit of it is though you don't need to rip the WAVs to your HDD.
