How do I get rid of this CoolWWW virus since the CWShredder doesn't seem to download from any of the sites anymore? I also can't get HijackThis. It seems to be from the same writer and those pages will not come up.
I had a startpage trojan. Something called system32 was deleted by my McAfee VirusScan. It was taking over my homepage. I finally got my home page back working right.
I am getting these popunders on my screen constantly too. C:\Windows\dlm.html-Microsoft Internet Explorer provided by comcast hispeed internet.... (I don't even have comcast anymore.) I click it but nothing comes up on the screen. I can right click and hit close and it goes away for a few minutes. Then it comes right back.
The other pop under I keep getting says:http://download3.payoutpal.com/download/index.html-Microsoft Internet Explore. This one does absolutely nothing when I click it. I can't even right click it to close. It comes up anytime I get online and sets there until I restart my computer. As soon as I get on the net again, back comes that popunder.
I also have some hotbar thing that will not be deleted by my Adaware or my Spybot. Spybot always says it will fix it on the next restart but it can not delete it.
My computer is a mess right now. I see many replies about HijackThis and CWShredder. I have not yet found a download site that will download any of them for me. I did get SpywareBlaster today. It is my understanding though that it won't take any of these hijacks off of my system but instead help keep them from coming back once I get them taken care of.
Any help would be appreciated.
ThanksHR

wawadave,
I was gonna e-mail them to him once I got an e-mail from him first. The version of CWShredder I have was before the update that started to pop up the sndvol.exe message.

I got the e-mail Dave. Thanks a bunch. Are these versions as current as the ones that Kevin has? Also, How do I close notepad before I install these?

This one does not say what version it is on the attachment. I won't know until I run the program. It does say though that it is 93.3 KB. Is your version the same size?

Thanks to both of you Kevin and Dave. I downloaded your more current version of CWShredder Kevin and I downloaded HijackThis from a link that Dave sent me. I ran the CWShredder and it cleaned up a lot of junk. I'm not sure if I had everything closed though. It did say that it may not fix everything if some programs are still open. My computer does seem to be working a little better though. I am still getting those stupid pop unders though that I spoke about in my original post.
I also ran the HijackThis. It says to be careful what you delete though. I can see some things right away that need to be deleted but some things I am not sure of. Would one of you be able to tell me what to delete and what not to if I post or e-mail you a copy of the log file?
Thanks again for all of the help.

Download the free version at Ad-Aware_6 to scan for and remove Spyware-Adware. It will help get rid of some of the pop ups. Be sure to check for updates now before using. The first time you run it, you should select the Custom scanning options and enable all checks that you can. If any items are found, check them to remove them. Be sure to reboot when done if problems were found.
Strange, but all of the SpywareInfo web site seems to still be down today.
