adware/searchwww

[...M...]

My Internet Explorer's search window was recently
hijacked by a homepage named searchwww.com. It installed
it's own search page, search url, and search assistant. I
got rid of those areas with the help of my Ad-aware
program, which just erased it from my registry. The thing
is, there is still an internet shortcut of theirs that
keeps trying to popup at about 49 minutes past the hour,
every hour. It doesn't acually popup because of my google
pop-up blocker, but i'm not about to just leave it there.
I have been looking around on the net and I believe it is
a script. Also the shortcut's address is
www.searchwww.com/vbs/, vbs standing for Visual basics
script. Can someone with expertise please look into this
or impart some of there wisdom? I have been
trying to figure this out for a week now.

Thank you very much,
M

seem to find ietoolbar.dll in the System32 folder and DOS
tells me I have no such thing. I didn't actually get
hijacked with a toolbar, just the searchwww search page
in my Internet Explorer search window and their shortcut
that won't seem to go away. The shortcut is the only
thing I have yet to get rid of. I can't find the path in
my system anywhere. My ad-aware plus program can't find
it, my spybot program can't find it, and my Spyhunter
program can't find it. I also have BHODemon, the browser
helper object eraser. I keep trying all these different
programs and nothing seems to work. I know its on my
computer somewhere, and when I actually find it i'm going
to wonder why I did not think to look there before. Can
someone else give me some leads???

Thank you,
M
