Default Re: spyware - "mywebsearch" - can't remove!!

mywebsearch and coolwebsearch are aweful... both are spyware programs, and these in particular can usher in some nasty virus's. ranger and tech both gave some of the best advice you can get with it. hijack this, adaware, spybot... those may get rid of it. otherwise, follow some of the advice from ranger
