fw-cutter is the program that pulls the firmware out of the windows
driver for use with the bcm43xx. It is not used for anything else that
I know of.

Are you absolutely sure the blacklisted module bcm43xx is not loading
anyway? use lsmod to find out. If so, use rmmod to remove it and
rmmod ndiswrapper too. Then install the correct windows driver with
ndiswrapper -i. (Be warned that the driver you are using under windows
may not work. mine didn't. I had to get another one) Then modprobe
ndiswrapper and check to see if hardware is detected using
'ndiswrapper -l' and 'ifconfig -a'.
