"Your Search" or"Search Your World" anybody seen that. It
takes control of your Internet Explorer like it was childs
play. You can't even keep MSN as your default home page.
This slimey web monster literally takes control of your
internet experience and there seems no control strong
enough to keep it away. I've erased in "Add Remove
Software" and in "Program Files" and it keeps evading and
returning. It's the one that can;t be uninstalled without
downloading even more soiftware which appears to be doing
the unistall but in reality is somehow getting you in even
deeper than before.

Surely the geniuses at Microsoft can figure out a way to
rid our systems of these horrible invaders, however each
time I see a message like mine there is never a reply.
Are we helpless.
Please!!!!!

Note that AdAware and SpyBot S & D will each catch some things the other
won't. Also, each needs to be updated before every use, even when just
downloaded. There's also a lot more to do than just those two programs.
CWShredder is also available here:
