What is the deal with CWS? It's to the point that I run
shredder several times a day! Also, I run the following:
CWShredder
Hijackthis
Spybot
Ad-aware
...and I've tried several others. I always update these
ever day, but it doesn't seem to have any impact other
than a few minutes reprieve. Sometimes, I can't even get
into some Microsoft sites as I'm re-directed by this
insidious spyware!

To top it all off, if I run a search on Microsoft's web
site for "CWS" or "Coolwebsearch" - I get no matches or
hits! Is Microsoft hoping if they don't acknowledge this
problem, we'll all assume it's not that big a deal? It's
to the point now that I have to use Opera or Netscape, IE
barely works and, when it does, the pop-ups never stop
and my system grinds to a halt.

Has anyone ever removed this completely, totally, from
their system????

Thanks!

don't think it was ms that gave you that hijacker. there
are so many kinds of it out, nobody can keep track
anymore. go to the computer cops forum, lots of stuff
there.
