I've been trying to get Cool Web Search of this XP home PC for hours now. Evertime I think I get it strait it pop up again. I installed Norton AV 2005 and got all the updates. When the problem appears norton finds a file or 2 and deletes it. When I reboot it is there is a file there again with a different name (Hkey- Local Machine-Software-Microsoft-Windows-Current Version-Run). Here is the HijackThis log file:

PLEASE PRINT OUT THESE INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE PROCEEDING.
(Click on Print this topic in the upper RH corner.)

STEP 1:
Please make sure that you can view all hidden files. Instructions on how to do this can be found here.

STEP 2:
Please download Trend Micro™ CWShredder™ here.
Save it to its own folder named CWShredder and place it at the root of your C:\drive along with HijackThis.
Don't run it yet, we will use it later.

STEP 3:
Download AboutBuster from RubbeR DuckY here
Save it to its own folder named AboutBuster and place it at the root of your C:\drive along with HijackThis.
Double-click AboutBuster.exe and press Update to make sure you have the latest reference file version.
NOTE: You might want to view this AboutBuster tutorial here first before running the tool.
Don't run it yet, we will use it later.

STEP 4:
Download and install the latest version of Ad-Aware SE here
NOTE: If you are still using the older Ad-Aware 6, go to Add/Remove Programs in the Control Panel and uninstall it now before installing Ad-Aware SE.
Please configure the program by following these instructions here.
Before scanning click on "Check for updates now" to make sure you have the latest reference file.
Don't run it yet, we will use it later.

STEP 5:
Download the eScan Antivirus Toolkit here.
Save it to the desktop. This program is 10MB in size.
Don't run it yet, we will use it later.

STEP 6:
Download and install the Ewido Security Suite
NOTE: The Ewido Security Suite utility will not install on Windows 95, 98, ME, or NT. The minimum system requirements for Ewido Security Suite is: Windows 2000 or Windows XP. 1.) Download and install the Ewido Security Suite here
2.) Double-click on the new e Ewido shortcut on the desktop to open the program.
3.) On the upper LH side column, click on the Update button.
(This will update the program with all the latest signature files.)
Don't run it yet, we will use it later.
STEP 7:
If you are using Windows 2000 or XP, you must first STOP and DISABLE the rogue service:
There are different Display Names to look for:
  • Workstation NetLogon Service
  • Remote Procedure Call (RPC) Helper
  • Remote Access Service
  • Network Security Service (NSS)
Go to Start => Run and type "Services.msc" (without quotes) then click Ok. 1.) Scroll down and find one of the bad services described above such as: Remote Procedure Call (RPC) Helper
2.) When you find it, double-click on it.
3.) In the next window that opens, click the Stop button, then click on Properties and under the General Tab, change the Startup Type to Disabled.
4.) Now hit Apply and then Ok and close any open windows.
STEP 8:
If you are using Windows 2000 or XP, copy the contents of the Quote Box below to Notepad. Name the file as cwsresfix.reg. Change the Save as Type to All Files, Save this file on the desktop. Please DO NOT include the word QUOTE when saving the file.
