Has anybody seen a file called "love army.exe" or gotten a folder called "FLAP DENT", the folder contained 5 .exe files another one was called "hide seek.exe". I deleted the folder and have run Norton Antivirus, Spybot, and Ad-aware... don't see anything else, have not heard of these before and don't know what damage they mave have caused. I have also had my search engines on both my Netscape and IE taken over by "My Search Now. com... I got back control of my Netscape browser but have lost my IE search.

Sounds like your IE problem is CoolWebSearch hijack ...one of many varients.

Download CWShredder from here:

Save it to disk, go offline to run the tool.
Reboot computer and run again just to be sure.

I would also get a second opinion from an online virus scanner just to be sure.
