    No. It sounds like some kind of malware, spyware or keylogger.. I would always deny it.

    Edit: Here is a page about this file, and it is labled as mostly dangerous and could be a virus... http://www.file.net/process/nnrun.exe.html

    I would recommend panda anti virus or the free version of panda might find it at www.nanoscan.com Hope this helps!

    it's a spyware type program, go to www.download.com and download a program called adaware. once you have downloaded it install it, update it and run a full system scan. check the box's of what is found and remove them. you should do this often. and you'll be surprised at how much is found!

    new.net is spyware, I've had it on my pc before. It messes around with your internet browser, changing the default home page and search page, and slows your computer down overall.
