its only a mod...
theres been loads like this before.

I took a look inside the executable and found nothing to worry about.
If it was doing something funny, it would have made internet security news headlines.


fray, u say alan recieves spam now; in the form of what?

messenger service popups? if so this aint owt to do with MSN...
now lots of spamlords of learnt the magic of netsend, everyone's started to be bombarded with this shit.

you can turn the messenger service off by doing this:

(this is not connected to MSN messenger and will not affect it)

goto start/run type services.msc

Now scroll down to messenger, and hit disable

using what..?! surely the best you can do to a compliled exe is decompile it to asm code.. and thats never even accurate

whatever it is, the fact remains that since alan installed that, msn uses up to 30k/s of bandwidth for no reason..

fray - can u not install a trafic watcher and see what trafics going in and out of alans pc, as well as what program is using it, personally i think theres more than meets the eye to this drugs thing as theres no adverts on the website and imm sure the auther would wanna make some £££ out of it

dunno never tired it, i would imagen the cpu would glow for a few seconds before the metal gets to hot and causes all of it to go puuf into a lil bit of smoke, though there is the risk of damaging the microwave oven, just thougth it would do the job of desftrying the cpu without the side effects of nuking it

p.s to those of you who dont know me i am being a weeeee bit sarcastic there and i dont recomend you microwave your cpu unless you wanna risk damaging the microwave and saying good by to the cpu
