Sorry, dude I just looked at the domain name www.brilliantdigital.com without looking at the ip address.

Dude the IP address for brilliant.digital.com is 64.70.38.178

Please note the ip address listed by your firewall (Kerio Personal Firewall) says its 127.0.0.1

which means to me you have used the SuperTrick off the KaZaLite site to modify your Hosts file to reflect the address for "brilliantdigital.com" as being the address of your own computer 127.0.0.1 (localhost)

This was done to keep the client (KaZaLite, AudioGalaxy (if clean versio) and or WinMX(clean or not) from connecting to www.brilliantdigital.com by making it think that your own computer is the internet address for www.brilliantdigital.com

to confirm this do a search for a file called hosts on your computer without any extension and open it in notepad and see if you don't have an entry that says something like the one below:

www.brilliantdigital.com 127.0.0.1

If so then that is all it is and since it is NOT CONNECTING to the REAL IP ADDRESS for www.brilliantdigital.com then you are probably okay.

Another note:

Dont reply on Third Party cleaners to remove all trackes of Brilliant Digital from you pc...Brilliant Digital is CONSTANTLY and CONSISTENTLY changing and updating the installation procedure by RENAMING the DLL's installed and their associations through CLSID (class id values) in the registry which look weird. here are some examples:


Deleting c:\WINDOWS\CatRoot\{127D0A1D-4EF2-11D1-8608-00C04FC295EE}\CATMAST.cbd...

Deleting c:\WINDOWS\CatRoot\{127D0A1D-4EF2-11D1-8608-00C04FC295EE}\CATMAST.cbk...

Deleting c:\WINDOWS\CatRoot\{127D0A1D-4EF2-11D1-8608-00C04FC295EE}\HASHMAST.cbd...

Deleting c:\WINDOWS\CatRoot\{127D0A1D-4EF2-11D1-8608-00C04FC295EE}\HASHMAST.cbk...

Deleting c:\WINDOWS\CatRoot\{127D0A1D-4EF2-11D1-8608-00C04FC295EE}...

odds are your "cleaner" if you used one missed these files...the CLSID prevents these files from being deleted normally.

Hope this helps

I'm sick of talking about BDE but if you want a cleaner for this program...i might put one up on my website for you...if you ask me nicely.

Cheers
