Initial scan (30 days ago) detected 8 spyware items,
deleted 7, quarantined 1 - that 1 being NetPal.

Why didn't MSASWr delete NetPal?

Thankx!
 
Hello BP8

This is what i find out

Removal
Before you can delete the program file you will need to
deregister it. Open a Command Prompt window (from the
Accessories submenu of [All] Programs on the Start button)
and enter the following commands, for the NP variant:

cd "%WinDir%\System"
regsvr32.exe /u netpal.dll
Or, for the N2 variant:

cd "%WinDir%\System"
regsvr32.exe /u netpal2.dll
Or, for the N3 variant:

cd "%WinDir%\System"
regsvr32.exe /u n3tpa1.dll
Restart the computer and you can delete the DLL file from
the System32 folder (inside the Windows folder; called
just 'System' on Windows 95/98/Me), along with the data
file kernellos.dll (NP variant) or boot0k.dll (N2, N3
variants).

To clean up, you can also open the registry
(click 'Start', choose 'Run' and enter 'regedit') and
delete the key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Destiny

I hope this help you with your problem, in case you don't
have use for this info. post again on the same location,
others helpers are ready to help you.

Good luck

I'm not sure of the nature of NetPal. If it is a peer-to-peer
application--i.e. one which involves file sharing, the default action on a
scheduled scan, and perhaps on a manual one as well, is to quarantine.

Many p2p apps store their shared files in the directory tree below the
program itself. When such an app is deleted by Microsoft Antispyware, all
the shared files are likely to be deleted as well, as a number of Kazaa
users have found in the course of this beta.

Hence the Quarantine default.
