I am running Window NT. I think I have the so-called dw.exe problem on my system. The computer got slowed a lot because of that. I opened the task manager and found that dw.exe process is taking 99% CPU usage even right after restarting the computer. Can I just end the dw.exe process in Task manager? or there is a better way of resolving this problem. Many thanks!

I heard a lot about dw.exe in the Windows Me forum here:

DW.exe is a bug you pick up from using Kazaa.
Search the site for details of how to get rid, but see the two links posted by Alex first.
