Default NewDotnet.dll

Its a monster. Its taken me almost 24h to get it off my machine. It's stealthware that is installed along with other stuff and binds itself to IE and redirects your sockets.If you delete it you lose your internet connectivity. I got it with Kazaa.

I had to hand-edit my registry and reinstall windows. Among other things it crunched my virus checker too.

Ad aware mangled its removal unknown to me and that gave me big problems. There are tools to remove it but they arent too reliable.

Contact me if you need any help with it.

I whiped off Kazaa from my pc a long time ago, together with all the spyware that comes with installing Kazaa!

Col, my ports got fucked recently and maybe this is to blame. I will check for it tonight and let you know.

Apparently the company pay software poducers to bundle it. It comes with various mp3 software too. T

I found this site really really helpful - but still had to reinstall windows. There are Zonealarm issues so it may be your problem Anarres.
