Hundreds of sharewares/freewares (CuteFTP, GetRight,
Go!Zilla, NetVampire...) are sponsored by banner ads
using a system provided by the AUREATE firm. The
trouble is that these DLL hook your browser and make
hidden connexions to Aureate servers. These connexions
will occur whenever you run your browser (Internet
Explorer or Netscape), and will not stop even if you
uninstall Aureate-related programs. No-Aura will
easily block connexions to these servers. No-Aura will
not alter Windows or other software's EXE, DLL or data
files. Nothing will be written in the registry. No-
Aura will not remain in memory while you work. No file
will be deleted. No-Aura will never block a server
without asking you first. Changes can be easily
undone. Normal Windows and network operation will not
be altered. Aureate- enabled programs will still be
able to operate.
