I've learned a bit about this Trojan, and some possible solutions. I know the CoolWebSearch as many variants. After reading several other posts I realized each case is different. With that I ask for help. Here's my HJT log.

You may not get a response here. HJT is by invitation only and only afer you have run adaware and spybot. try the security and virus forum.

My mistake on the log. I wasn't familiar with the protocol.

Before your post gets deleted, copy and save these help sites. http://forums.spywareinfo.com/ http://www.wilderssecurity.com/index.php http://forums.net-integration.net/ http://www.computercops.biz/modules.php?name=Forum/ http://spywarewarrior.com/ http://forum.gladiator-antivirus.com/

Had to be quick, copy to notepad or add to favorites.

I have ran spy bot- clean and have ad-aware running. it is diverting many attempts to redirect my browser, but not all. I am getting pop's about spy ware running on my computer and about:search when using AOL instant mess. or e-bay. Help?
