Stuart,

Global-Finder (CoolWebSearch spyware). This is a trojan/spyware that hijacks Internet Explorer start and search settings to one of several different web sites

Download CoolWebSearch destroyer from here:
http://www.spywareinfo.com/~merijn/files/cwshredder.zip

And download Ad-Aware from www.lavasoftusa.com and update it. It eliminates for any other spyware, if present in the system.
