CoolWebSearch

[Sarah]

The AntiSpyware program keeps popping up with an alert
stating that CoolWebSearch Browser Modifiger is trying to
install. I click remove and it claims to have removed it
however not even 2 minutes later the same alert pops up.
What can I do to get rid of CoolWebSearch indefinatly??!

SARAH: The coolwebsearch gets to you diff ways..along

do a search on google for cwsshredder, there are several
sites that have this program which is designed to remove
CWS. It worked for me.
