Noel,
I got the Stnger to work! I don't know what happened the
first time. I still need to do the CW shredder.

Marilyn - it really does sound as if you have some

serious problems on your
PC - I have never been unable to access the Stinger link

unless there are
interfering programs running.

Are you using a Firewall? - if so, then disable it and

get the Stinger (and
nothing else), then reboot to Safe Mode, and run it, and

see if it detects
anything.
If you're not running a firewall, then I suggest that you

contact a
specialist group for advice......
look here for some suggestions....

Noel,
I installed the new script engine. Didn't work. Went to
McAfee, that website isn't good anymore, the one with
Stinger. Didn't have time to update my virus scan, will

do
this weekend.
I am also having problems with SYSRESTORE. Hav ea post

on
that also under system tools. Did what as suggested

ther,
and it doesn't work. For some reason, it seems like my

PC
doesn't want to work updates. Is this an ME thing?
Marilyn

Thank you Noel.
I just did a check with SpyBot last night and it was
clean.
I will try the Stinger also.
I will follow your instructions and see what happens.

You probably need either to rid your PC of spyware, or
to
install an updated
script engine -
look here for the latter

and as for the former.....
You may have a virus/spyware hijack

download the Stinger from here and run it to make sure
that A-V-disabling
viruses are not present on your PC
http://download.nai.com/products/mcafee-
avert/stinger.exe

- update your virus scanner and run a full system scan
of
all files.

Reboot to Safe Mode and run CWShredder - to remove
variants of the
CoolWebSearch hijacker.
http://www.merijn.org/cwschronicles.html

Use CWShredder, the removal tool:

http://www.spywareinfo.com/downloads/tools/CWShredder.

ex
e
http://www.zerosrealm.com/downloads/CWShredder.zip

download AdAware from www.lavasoftusa.com, install,
update, and run it to
remove spyware, adware,
and other such nasties from your system.
