Need to replace dlla32.exe file
Hello,
When I ran Norton on my computer to look for viruses today it came up with
pwsteal.trojan. The virus has infected my windows/system/dlla32.exe file. I
really am not sure what that particular executable does but I need to find a
clean copy of the file and delete the currently infected one. Where can I go
to get a copy of the file? How do I go about relpacing it?
Thanks for all your help!

* Skylink Wins Appeal in Garage Door Opener Case
Court Rules Copyright Law Cannot Be Used to Stifle
Competition
Washington, DC - A federal appeals court in Washington, DC,
this week upheld a lower court ruling that allows the
marketing of "universal" remote controls for garage door
openers, an important decision that helps pave the way
for competition and lower prices in the after-market
and replacement parts arena.
"Competition in after-market and replacement parts, such
as remote garage door controls, helps create lower prices
and better products," said Kenneth DeGraff, a researcher
for Consumers Union. "Allowing one company to control
those markets and the prices they charge hurts consumers."
The Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) was passed in
1998 to stop mass copyright infringement on the Internet,
but some companies have gone beyond this purpose and
invoked its controversial "anti-circumvention" clause to
stave off the competition. The Samuelson Law, Technology &
Public Policy Clinic at Boalt Hall School of Law, UC
Berkeley, and the Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF)
co-authored the Consumers Union brief to help stand up
for consumer rights and the right to create new
after-market technologies capable of interoperating with
legitimately purchased products.
Jennifer M. Urban, the lead attorney on the case at the
Samuelson Clinic, said, "The court recognized that
copyright law grants rights to consumers as well as
copyright holders and held that the DMCA did not wipe
those rights away."
"Chamberlain's lawsuit sought to stifle competition by
misusing the DMCA," said Deirdre K. Mulligan, Director
of the Samuelson Clinic. "Congress warned of such abuses,
and we're pleased that the court rejected this view to
avoid harming consumers."
"When consumers buy a garage door opener, they have the
right to use whatever remote they want with it, even
one from another company," said Jason Schultz, EFF Staff
Attorney and a co-author of the brief. "In Chamberlain's
view, it's their remote or no remote. Thanks to this
decision, they've now been shown that the law views
it differently."
Skylink won decisions in the lower court and at the
International Trade Commission, but Chamberlain appealed,
claiming that Skylink's remote control device circumvents
access controls to a computer program in its garage door
opener. In its decision, the Court of Appeals rejected
Chamberlain's claims, further noting that if the court
adopted Chamberlain's interpretation of the DMCA, it
would threaten many legitimate uses of software within
electronic and computer products - something the law
aims to protect.
"[Chamberlain's interpretation] would...allow any copyright
owner, through a combination of contractual terms and
technological measures, to repeal the fair use doctrine
with respect to an individual copyrighted work - or even
selected copies of that copyrighted work," wrote the
court. "Copyright law itself authorizes the public to
make certain uses of copyrighted materials. Consumers
who purchase a product containing a copy of embedded
software have the inherent legal right to use that
copy of the software. What the law authorizes,
Chamberlain cannot revoke."

Customize This Folder
Where do you go in Windows Me (and/or the registry) to verify that your
Customized Folder options are correct?
Every once in a while, all my customized folders get reset to default, and I
lose all my little notes, picture previews, web templates, etc.
Generally, this happens if I delete the wrong entry that Spybot or Ad-aware
finds -- but I do not know which entry (or entries) pertain to the
customized folders in Windows Explorer. If someone can tell me this, I can
flag those so that Spybot and Ad-aware ignore them in future scans.
Internet Explorer is linked to Windows Explorer in certain things. I have
noticed that when I am online with my browser open at the same time I am
customizing a folder (or editing the message on an existing customization)
in Windows Explorer that my browser refreshes as Windows Explorer refreshes.
So the registry entries for customized folders might be under Windows
Explorer, Explorer, or Internet Explorer in the registry, or a combination
of all three. I don't know.
Here is a related problem that happened yesterday. In addition to the folder
customizations being lost, and all my little folder messages being lost, all
the icons on the right side of the Windows Explorer window were flush up
against the window, instead of about an inch and a half to the right. There
was no place for thumbnail previews to display. No place for custom messages
to display. And on my D Drive root directory, the little pie chart that
shows how much space is used and free was missing. It showed up for C, but
not for D. It would not let me customize folders at all. The menu option to
customize this folder was not even available for the C drive root directory.
It was on the menu for the other folders on C, and on D, but it did not
work.
The only way I could fix this problem was to do two system restores. All my
customizations are back, and the folder icons display properly again,
including the one for my D drive. The pie chart is back as it should be.
If this happens again, I'd like to know where to go into the registry to fix
it.
Also, please tell me which Internet Explorer, Explorer, and Windows Explorer
entries should not be deleted by Spybot and Ad-aware, so that (1) my folder
customizations and notes remain intact, and (2) the icons display properly
on the right side of the window, and I don't lose the root directory pie
charts or the ability to customize folders. Tag: hot plug Tag: 250550

When I try to install IE6 I get a simialr message to this:
A previous installation has pending work requiring a

to go to msconfig and uncheck all but Load Static Vxds and
re-run the installation. Ok, so now I am in safe mode and

Unable to boot up
Please help. I own the computer from hell! Several days
ago I attempted to add new software, and now I can only
start my computer in safe mode. I tried to uninstall the
new software, but it doesn't show up in the add/remove
programs window. The computer refuses to do a system
restore. I checked the registry, there are supposedly no
errors, but it will not reload from the registry. I have
scanned for viruses and found none. Tech support at
Staples (where I purchased the computer and an extended
warranty on it) tells me that my registry is corrupted
and to do a factory restore using the CD that came with
the computer. I will lose everything on my hard drive if
I do so, and Staples will charge me a fortune to extract
things from it. They claim I invalidated the warranty
when I installed additional memory purchased from their
store! I would like to transfer the contents of some
folders to a CD, but although my computer will read from
a disk, it will not write to it. It spins it's wheels, so
to speak, and acts as if it is doing so, but nothing
actually is burnt onto the disk. Does anyone know if my
computer will recognize and transfer to a memory card
while in safe mode? I don't want to go out and spend $50
for a memory card, and then find out it won't work. Any
suggestions on how to force my computer to actually burn
a CD in safe mode? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

OE6 and Blocked Attachments
I have received this from one of our Senior Club Members, can anyone assist
please?
Hi Joe
A problem with recently installed Outlook Express 6. I find " jpg "
attachments being blocked as being a potential virus.
Why jpg I don't know as I thought these to be relatively safe.
The attachment bar is removed from the e-mail and a yellow bar appears on
the top with the message " OE removed access to the following attachment in
your mail ........... ....... jpg "
This can be bypassed by going to Tools - Options - Security, and remove the
check from "Do not allow attachments to be saved or opened that could be a
potential virus " Possibly as a temporary measure.
I also found that if Forward is selected for an e-mail with a blocked
attachment the attachment can be opened.( Apparently OK to forward a
potential virus )
Looking for a permanent solution to remove jpg files from the list I found
Microsoft Knowledge Base Article 291387. a section of this dealing with
unsafe file lists is attached, a jpg, hope you can open it.
However I have tried this several times with two JPEG Folder Options listed
as shown on second attachment,and it did not work.

EZ Armor & Update of EZ Trust......
Forgot to tell you......there is a new build of EZ Trust
Antivirus......6.3.0.9 is the version number.
I was talking to CA and they forgot to send out a notification to their
users.....which did not impress me.
And I asked a few more questions about EZ Armor because I finally found a
way to download the free Microsoft version. There were some glitches before
because I was a paying customer of the AV program. Earlier, I could not
have d/l'ed it. The bit where one clicks as a *present customer* would not
work, so I got it somehow from their website.
They told me that they have fixed up their abominably slow website and
yes...I checked it out and they have.
****They told me that the free firewall is *Zone Alarm PRO 4.5* (not a 3.xxx
one) that is included in the freebie......and once this AV is up for renewal
in 10 days, I will switch to that.****
I have to say that dealing with their tech support is a pleasure.....they
are always nice and do get back to you. This took 24 hours.
Just keeping you up to date on EZ Trust/Armor. I have used it for at least
4 years and have absolutely no complaints.

about the Yahoo Toolbar mucking up WinME. Apparently they are also having
problems with WinME and Parental Controls.
This tech knows what she is talking about and she advised against
downloading their software.....which I wouldn't have done anyway. The
