Comments 
NetBus 1.70 was the last version before the greatly changed 2.0 Pros. The port redirection feature allows someone to use your IP instead of theirs for such things as: viewing web pages, IRC, FTPs, and more. This version also came with a server scanner and a server setup before sending the actually server file.
