I installed KazAa last week and suddening was having a number of problems....I solved most of them when I uninstalled it. However I am constantly receiving the following error message: "Dw has caused an error in DW.exe. Dw will now close". In the add/remove program, I cannot find anything even resembling that......so I can uninstall it. What do you suppose is going on? I just defragged and did a Norton virus scan......nothing.

To Renaissance Man,

I managed to find and delete downloadware. I couldn't find it before you gave me those urls to check out. Hopefully that will take care of problem. Thanks for responding to my question.

You're welcome.

And thanks for saying thanks.

If that doesn't work, others may be able to help. BTW, I found the URLs from typing dw.exe in Google!

Download FOUR pieces (peaces) and then put it back together????
Why not just a link to the real thing??

BTW I hope this is the Spyware Free Version (as you indicate), not the Spyware LOADED Freeware version of imesh??

The solution ...

I had this problem, and i solved it ! Sorry for my bad english (i'm french) but you may solve this if you follow thoses instructions :

1 . Try to find where is the DW.exe programm on your computer (in mine, it was in C:\program files\downloadware\

2 . Boot your computer in MSDOS mode (i used a WIN98 boot disk but normally you can reboot in this mode with Windows)

3 . TYPE "CD [DIRNAME]"

4. type "DEL *.*"

5 - there are subdirectories, use 3 and 4 to delete their contents

6 - finish with an "RD [DIRNAME]"

7 - boot normally. It works and KAZAA still works.

Bye
