nw.ownerz.net
« on: May 31, 2004, 11:51:19 PM »
My automatic dialler in Windows XP professional keeps telling me that a program needs to access nw.ownerz.net. I think this is probably so that a virus or worm can get in or possibly some kind of backdoor. Any ideas how to prevent this, or which program is requesting access? Thanks

Run a scan with avast.

Scan online with housecall

scan with ad-aware which you can download here (dont forget to update it)

Thanks for the tips...Nothing seems to spot this one including fully updated versions of Adaware, spybot and Avast! I have done a really extensive search on the web for help on this but can only find one site that mentions it and it is in Japanese! I will try the other option you mentioned though. :)
