My 56K connection started to slow down. Ran Netstat -a in XP and found lots of TIME_WAIT refs to coolwwwsearch.com. All were on Local
Port 1026 with Foreign Ports in the range 11xx. I think I managed to shut down port 1026 in my firewall but I still get coolwwwsearch.com
listed when I run Netstat -a. Can't make this go away despite latest Spy Sweeper removing "Websearch" and "Cool Web Search". Is this
just some sort of false alarm?
