Locked or 'Suspect' file(s) found...
These may be other files that Dllfix doesnt target.
If not file is listed than Dllfix may not Help.
in this case please post the contents of Windows.txt to the appinit
entry can be checked. You will find it in the dllfix folder after findall completes.


Scanning for main Hijacker:


Dllfix must have the Hijackerfiles in system32 to fix properly.
If there are no protocal keys text/html and text/plain
then dllfix may not work. This fix targets this type Hijack Entry.
that keeps reoccuring with different filenames.

No, sorry, I actually wanted you to attach the dllfix program as a zip attachment to your post.

gerry72

Download CWShredder from here & run it. Select the fix button & it will get rid of everything related to CoolWebSearch that is stored in it's database. Close ALL windows, including IE, before running CWShredder.
