Coolwebsearch spyware and adware

Spyware

Had a problem with keylogger virus back last year.
Could not get ride of it. Removed from registry, reboot and it was back there.
Sounds very simular.
My solution was down load safe disc set from Trend Micro and run from floppy discs. Identify registry and file locations. Remove registery entrys and then remove the remainder of the identified files using DOS comands and it worked.
Hope this is of some use

Cheers

then get yourself protection from such nasties to prevent another infestation...

I run:

NOD32 (quelle surpise - we sell it) - which is doing a fantastic job of adding more and more trojans every day almost...

Ad-Aware SE
M$ Anti-spyware trial
SpywareBlaster
Spybot SD

Get and run CCleaner and cleanup your dllcache folder on a regular basis!

My client cleanup tool-kit has many, many MANY more tools in it - and I guess I do a couple of machines a month for careless clients who have got caught. Only ONCE thought I was beaten, and then Ewido identified the culprit for me - 2 minutes searchning the net for a removal instructions, then 5 minutes more getting rid of the blighter... machine back to relative health!
