Hammerer he did not ask for a dll. That was his short for download. Now
come on buddy wake up. There is no dll for this issue. As for the file I
made available for download. The person who made it is in a chat at WinMX I
am not going to tell you what the name of it is because I am not going to
advertise what I am interested in. Let me take a look at it and I'll tell
you if it is Windows 98 compatible....


Yes the unpatch.bat is wrong that will do nothing in Windows 98. Won't hurt
anything but will not work. The patch itself file will work just fine in
Windows 98. It is correect. The user can save his HOSTS file manually in
C:\WINDOWS to HOSTS.txt and apply the patch. It will do what it is supposed
to do. The reason why I mentioned that this patch should really be updated
with later ones is because they change often but this one will still work.
