CoolWebSearch spyware

[traxless]

For those of you who are now using a HOSTS file, bless your hearts.
You will not be sorry! Allow me to paste a quote about an
essential freeware tool.

"For 9x/NT/2K/XP. The only tool that will reliably remove all known
variations of the CoolWebSearch spyware/hijacker. CoolWebSearch has
become so common (and CWShredder sufficiently refined) that I now
believe all users should run this whenever they suspect possible
parasite infestation."

The primarily site for CWShredder is http://www.merijn.org.

Good luck,

traxless,
You must have his IP in your HOSTS file.
