I don't profess to know what the heck I am talking about, but, when this

thread first started, I did a simple Google search for "kernall32.dll" and

found loads of stuff....a lot of which concerned some nasty backdoor trojan.

I know this is not a system file, however, the link above with replies from

Noel Patton found a problem in a system.ini file being corrupt.

 

Other hits in Google go into more detail of the trojan and the spelling is

correct, it has nothing to do with the system file <kernel32.dll>. Maybe a

false alarm, maybe a red flag....don't know.....JTTH.

nellie:

If you were following all the threads in this post, you know by now that the

latest version is 1.5.2.20, not 1.5.1.17. V.1.4.. would probably serve the

same purpose, but personally I like to be 'up-to-date' and all indications

are, that the latest version is compatible with WinME, even though a little

maneuvering on my part was necessary.

As far as the "trick" is concerned, please, ignore it since I can't

recollect any details of it.

The download for v.1.5.2.20 can be obtained on this website, among others:

Hope you are successfull in your endeavors and that the "kernall32.dll" was

a smoke screen.

In case of any occurring problems you may want to consider following Alias'

advice.

 

Harry.

I'm not experiencing the issues you mention with version 1.5.2.20 on

either XP or Vista.

Right. 1.5.2.20 is a later version than the one I indicated had problems with high

utilization and SpyBot S&D software loading latencies on; Win2K, WinXP and Vista.
