The new driver does not work - still returns driver invalid message - on Windows 2000 Pro, SP4. This started after recent Microsoft updates so is probably same issue as for XP.
Thanks for a great package, which has undone some spyware infestations for some of my colleagues. Hope the problem can be resolved quickly.

After using the attached file, I've had a computer - that never before crashed because of Winpooch - get crashed...and again and again!!! I've had to re-download the old SYS file...
P.S.
I did NOT install that Windows update that some people here did (I'm settling for SP2).
