I've got the coolwebsearch trojan and it keeps reseting my homepage. Nortan anti-virus doesnt even find it but adaware did, but whenever adaware gets rid of it it just comes back when i restart my computer. It's really annoying. Can anyone help?

go get Spybot S&D and try it. http://beam.to/spybotsd

It seems to work. Thanks.

I was gonna say get 'cwshredder' (just google it), and that would take care of it for you if it comes back. Worked for me.

what also works is ad-ware from lavasoft. You can download it from Download.com or at http://www.lavasoftusa.com
Another good tool is HIjack This! Though the ad-ware seems to fix about 99% of them.

Wow it seems I have this coolweb search trojan thing now....my antivirus stuff seems to totaly have missed it. Its doing freaky stuff. One, when I hook to the net it makes no sound. And of course, my homepage is set to there crap.

I really don't understand them... Pop-ups, too. Having them harass you just makes you dislike them. They don't suddenly inspire you to buy or participate in whatever they're advertising... you just want to crush them. XD Some people get some really weird kicks out of things... like me... except I prefer not to make people want to find out where I live so that they can prevent me from ever bothering them again. XDDD

you might want to check your windows registry in case there is still traces of it left, when i got rod of spyware/adware i had to delet the traces in registry
