Overview

It adds registry entry for the current user which will allow the program to automatically start each time it is rebooted. Upon being installed, the software adds a Windows Service which is designed to run continuously in the background. Manually stopping the service has been seen to cause the program to stop functing properly. It adds a background controller service that is set to automatically run. Delaying the start of this service is possible through the service manager. The software is designed to connect to the Internet and adds a Windows Firewall exception in order to do so without being interfered with. The primary executable is named NetClient.exe. The setup package generally installs about 43 files and is usually about 50.1 MB (52,535,001 bytes). The installed file NetUpdates.exe is the auto-update component of the program which is designed to check for software updates and notify and apply them when new versions are discovered.
