Adware? NewDotNet

All P2P programs are dangerous as you can read about in the below link which I gave to you in your other thread.

How to Protect yourself from malware!

Some are justy worse than others because the bundle malware with their installation. Bearshare does this. Older versions of LimeWire did the same, however newer versions supposedly (things can change) do not bundle malware.

NewDotNet is not what we would classify as a major problem, but it is still a problem and it can cause computer instability. See this:

The malware that can be bundle with programs like Bearshare can be more of a problem since you never know what they will install. Sometimes they install programs that download additional malware related software onto your PC. i.e, SaveNow, WhenU, and NewDotNet often appear on PCs having Bearshare Adware slows down your PC and wastes your time but advertising and possibly redirecting you to undesired websites. Some of these also collect information on your surfing habits. They track websites visited and then may popup separate browser windows with targeted advertisements and special offers. They can continuously download updated information about new offers and collects a variety of information. Thus they slow your PC down too while doing this.
