search4u and winlogon problems

My homepage keeps changing to search4u. I must not be deleting all the right files using HJ, which I hope you can help me with. Also when I scan my PC using trend micro it shows up a winlogon.exe file, which I cant, delete (its getting on my nerves). Any help would be appreciated.

If HJ did not find it and properly remove it, download and use CWShredder. this is designed to kill homepage hijackers,. If that does not work try this(from CWShredder website) PepiMK's CoolWWWSearch.Smartsearch killer and run that first, then use CWShredder to clean up.

After you run cwshredder; cwshredder.exe Start your computer in safe mode navigate to C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Start Menu\Programs\Startup, and delete that winlogon.exe file. not the real Win XP winlogon, which is in \Windows\System32\
