Sporder.dll

[Simon]

After installing MS Anty SpyWare and running it, it found
a spyware WebHanser on my PC. MS Anty SpyWare recomended
to delete Sporder.dll. I deleted Sporder.dll as recomended.
Now I have no network connection, no SQL Server and some
other programs not working as a result.
Any recomendations of what to do next?

Removal procedures:
simply deleting WebHancer files from your system will
result in losing your ability to connect to the Internet.
WebHancer modifies your Windows Sockets configuration,
binding itself to Winsock so that all packets are passed
through WebHancer.

WebHancer's suggested removal method is to make sure
WebHancer is installed, and remove it using Windows'
Add/Remove Software feature as described at the bottom of
WebHancer's installation page. If you have already
deleted WebHancer components, the company suggests that
you download (or get a friend to download, due to the
connectivity problem!) their Customer Companion, fully
install it, then use Add/Remove Programs to uninstall.

WebHancer can also be safely removed by pest-removal
software such as Spybot Search&Destroy and AD-Aware.

The same thing happened to me. Simply log on to your
computer in Safe Mode and go to System Restore and go back
to an earlier date. That should fix the problem. Don't
try to remove WebHancer.

I'd actually remove Sporder.dll, reboot and fix the winsock.

To do so:

XP SP2: Start - Run - netsh winsock reset

XP Pre-SP2 or Win2k:
