coolWWW removal

[DavidHHHH]

Does anyone know how to get this off my system and keep
it off? It is connected with a hijacker which resets my
homepage to Maximumsearch I believe. My spysweeper
sofetware catches and deletes it and keeps it from
changing my homepage, but when I shut down, it will
reappear.

Try Spybot or Ad Aware. Google them to find where to get
them.

I Have those too, but they will only delete it, not keep
it from reappearing when I reboot. It is on my system
somewhere.>

thanks, the cwshredder from that sight found several
things that ad aware, spybot and spysweeper were unable
to find.
coolWWW is believed to enter thru a flaw in msjava

Then you can run MSCONFIG. It should tell you what is
starting and (more importantly) where it is starting from
(registry / start menu). You can then go to the source
and delete it.

I see that you used CWS to remove it,Spywareblaster will
prevent it from returning.
