If you are running Windows 98, here is what you can do;
Click on START, RUN
Type in MSCONFIG, answer OK
Check SELECTIVE START UP, APPLY
Select the STARTUP tab at the top of the window
Find the WNAD file(s) and uncheck it/them.
Click APPLY then OK
You will need to reboot now, after that, you will be able to delete the WNAD files.
Good luck.

I emailed the webmaster of twisted humor, told them I wasnt happy about their wnad crap and did not agree to it being installed. heres what they sent back;

>>>I downloaded the game a few weeks ago. The game is ok, but now my computer goes to some ad they put out just about everyday, must have some program hidden in the download. I uninstalled the game, but still goes to the ads everyday. Any ideas on how to get rid of this?
