I hope I did this right. I don't know anything about CW Shreader or where it is at, I am still learning this stuff, so please tell me in simple english what I need to do.
I have done the ad/remove for the program (Iwon) quite a while back and I don't see it on my windows explorer, so I don't know how to get rid of this one. Please help me get rid of the bad ones.
Maybe you can see something in here that could explain why my scroll bar will scroll too far and miss stopping where is should stop. If I use the arrows on the scroll bar, I can control it fine. While I'm typing now in this box, if I click inside the scroll box it will skip way down to the bottom and when I try to bring it back to the top it will jump to the top and back down again. I have to use the arow up and down on my keyboard to have good control over the page. I did notice this sometime after the last windows update. Here is my log file.

read here to get a copy of coolwebshredder.
http://www.spywareinfo.com/~merijn/cwschronicles.html#cwshredder

Before you post a massive log like this, you should post your problem. Only if someone who can read this log asks for you to post it, will it be any good.
You have at least one piece of spyware...
BACKWEB-8876480.EXE (I think).Install, update then run Spybot and see what it says is OK to delete. Then post back if you still have problems.
Spybot will probably tell you the following three are spyware crap and allow you to delete them.....

There are entries in your HijackThis! log (such as those identified by an R1 or R0) that need removal. Suggest you post the log in the Security and Virus forum (Find on the left side column), where a security knowledgeable person may analyze and respond.

Sorry, I had posted this on an earlier post because someone had told me to, but no one responded to it. I did all they said to do except for CW shredder. So I just posted it here in hopes someone could see what shouldn't have been in hijack log.
The origonal post is just a little way down from here number 39726 NewDotNet & MyWebSearch. I'm not really too smart at times, over tired I guess.

I just wanted to say that I downloaded the 30 day free trial of ZoneAlarm today. With all that I have done to my computer and with the update of ZoneAlarm, I haven't had any troubles today so far anyway.
I quarantined all the check marks items that my spyware programs found. I just don't know if there are any programs here in my log that will cause problems. I will go to the link for shredder and read and use it. Thanks

in http://www.computing.net/windowsme/wwwboard/forum/39726.html
one of your previous posts, response #3, JackG gave you a link to CWShredder. He gave you a lot of good advice.

Hi Tammy,
Run HT again and check the following items. Next, close all browser Windows, and have HT 'fix checked'.You Must restart your computer when you're done.

tammy you should d/l spybot search and destroy,up date it,run it it will get rid of most curant spyware.
http://security.kolla.de/index.php?lang=en&page=download

I think this one has to do with my dialup provider. It is probably thier tool bar for for utillities, connection, email,links, favorites, Services. It is simular to my internet toolbar. It also automatically takes me to their home page.

I have Ad-ware and Spybot and have used both of them. I also have SpyBlaster and HiJackThis. The only one I didn't have was the CW Shredder.
Thanks to all of you for your help

I have this crap too and can't get rid of it. Searchcentrix alters all of my searches. I've done all that's above and still can't remove it. I've reinstalled explorer too. I've changed my advanced search settings, but each time I open up another explorer window and search it takes me to either google or searchcentrix. I want neither.
Anyone else have any ideas?
Micah

You need to post this by clicking on the list on the left of the screen in Windows ME or 9X or any of these listings and scroll down to the bottom. That is where you make new posts. Some one who knows their stuff will help you. From what I have read, there is also a google search that should that will do the same thing as the searchcentrix.
