Hello Raj, Do a search for a folder named "Downloadware" If you find it, delete it. It contains spyware which includes "DW.exe". Most likely from a site like Kazaa. Regards, Ray.

Find the Downloadware folder under program files and simply delete it, it is an add-on program which is added when KaZaa has been installed.
DW.exe error should no longer appear when this is deleted.
