Most of the issues regarding NetBus is explained in the NetBus.rtf (Rich Text Format) manual, which resides in the NetBus package. However, there are still some issues that the manual doesn't explain or that should be cleared out.

Q: When is a new version out?
A: You never know. It could be tomorrow, it could be in a year. As an individual programmer you could not promise any release date.

Q: Will there be any new version at all?
A: Probably. Besides some small bug-fixes, I'll hope to add a real-time screen-capturing feature like PC Anywhere in the future. And again, don't ask when it will be released, all I can tell you is that it will be released on this site (hopefully).

Q: How do you remove the NetBus server from my PC?
A: I provide two solutions, one for the older and one for the newer version of the NetBus server. Read both, and you should be able to remove it. If you still got problems, you should ask the person who installed it for help, he is responsible for helping you.

Q: I can't connect to anyone. What am I doing wrong?
A: Forgotten that the NetBus server must be running on the target computer, or that a host-name or IP-address is necessary to address the target computer? Also, ICQ-IP-sniffers is nice to sniff peoples IP-addresses on ICQ, even if they "hide" them.

Q: Is NetBus illegal?
A: Of course NOT! Is Format, FDisk and PC Anywhere illegal? - of course NOT! It's just your own actions that could be illegal. Besides that, NetBus could be used as a nice network administration tool.

Q: Don´t you get worried when you realize that NetBus is becoming a gun in the hands of hackers?
A: Yes, when it's used to damage other systems. People that use it in that way is in not "real" hackers. These people is lacking of total respect to other. But I hope NetBus (and similar programs like Back Orifice) will make more people aware of the security risks at their system.

Q: Why did you do this software?
A: NetBus was made to let people have some fun with his/her friends. In other words, my attention with NetBus in the beginning was neither to have it as an administration tool nor as an hacking-tool. Future version will become a more serious administration tool.

I hope this FAQ made you a little clever. If you still have a question that you want me to answer, I hope it's a good one. I'm getting more than 50 mails/day, and it is impossible to answer all of these.
