Hello basicfish and welcome to TomCoyote forum. If you are not receiving help elsewhere please follow these directions in the posted order.

1) Download CCleaner from this link: http://www.ccleaner.com/ Review the instructions on the download page and please do not run it until I ask you to.

2) Download and run these two programs making sure you update and configure them before running. Please do not activate TeaTimer during the HJT fix.
http://tomcoyote.org/aawsb.php

3) Please turn off WinPatrol, it will block our fix: right click the running icon, and exit.

4) Open HijackThis and choose "Do a system scan only" then check the box in front of these line items:

O3 - Toolbar: SearchToolbar - {08BEC6AA-49FC-4379-3587-4B21E286C19E} - (no file)

Close all programs but HJT and all browser windows, then click on "Fix Checked"

5) Run CCleaner but do not use the registry cleaner unless you backup the registry first as prompted. Then restart the computer and post a new HJT log in this same thread along with any feedback you have. Let us know how you are running.

Thanks PSKELLY for your help. I took the steps per your inst. and it may have removed the problem, but I think I still have something strange going on. I hope this log file can help you help me. If not, I will try and find a free online scan somewhere. I believe Spyboy found CoolWWW hijacker but it froze after trying to remove it duting a reboot….I'll try to rescan things and be more organized and call on your help again. Right now I have a headache. Yhanks again, Lonnie

Hi Lonnie, You a very welcome :) and I can understand about the headaches. I will look at this new log in a moment but first I can say I do not see evidence of CoolWebSearch on the computer. If you wish to run CWShredder to be sure you can download it free here:
http://www.softpedia.com/get/Internet/Popu…WShredder.shtml Update and choose FIX and allow the program to remove anything it locates.
I will also suggest running Spybot Search and Destroy in safe mode. Here are instructions for entering safe mode if you need them: http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/forums/tutorial61.html

This toolbar was missed somehow but I don't think it is a problem with the file missing. You may use HJT to remove it as you did the last time if you wish.
O3 - Toolbar: (no name) - {08BEC6AA-49FC-4379-3587-4B21E286C19E} - (no file)
AdWare.ToolBar.SBSoft.h (left from this)

Your HJT log is clean beside that. I will give you this information now: Here is some great information from Tony Klein, Texruss, ChrisRLG and Grinler to help you stay clean and safe online:

Phil, Thanks for all your help. Also thanks for the links, I believe you have compiled a very informative knowledge base. I am unemployed at the moment and the Coyote site will be remembered in the future. I do support these friendly helpful forums.\ I see your from Clearwater ,FL. My home was St. Cloud, Fl for 14 years. Man I miss my fishing. Bass, Snook, Tarpon, Shark, Redfish etc. I fished 10,000 Islands enough to be a pro guide. I have a 32lb. snook and 115 lb tarpon under my belt (light tackle is the only way to go, its more challenging). OK, I am straying of the main subject here. Thanks again Phil, Lonnie….who loves to talk fishin and PC's.
Post #7
:D Right you are…when I do get out on the Gulf I use a ultralight spining rod and 4 to 6 pound test. I loose the big ones but have a load of fun with the rest. I was with Shells Restaurants for a while and helped open the Shells in Kissimmee, where are you located now? If I can be of additional help, please let me know…Phil Skelley
Post #8
Had to move back home to Baton Rouge, LA. My Mom and Dad are in bad health. My Dad has cancer and has lost both legs in the past year. Dont like to talk sad news, but thats life. Miss all my golf and fishing buddies in Fl. I have had a great life, so it was time for me to do my part for my family. Sometime in the near future I'll be able to take a break an go spend a week or so, and go hit my old fishin holes and visit my friends. Hope the snook will be around, if not, I'd settle for a tackle rippin Jack or Black tip spinner. Ever fished Sebastian Inlet? Or Cape Coral around Sanibel. Redfish Pass? I'm a Fan/raeder of Randy Wayne White and Carl Hiaasen, how bout you? "Double Whammy" is an excellent read by Hiaasen. You'll laugh till ya cry. Skink is my hero. Check ya latter Phil. nice chattin with ya, hope the moderator dont get upset for us straying out of subject.
