Hi Eric

First get CWShredder to remove enjoysearch.
Be sure to close all browser windows before hitting the "Fix" button.
www.merijn.org/files/CWShredder.exe
Then rescan with Hijack This and post a new log please.
Since i just noticed that both merijn.org and Spybot's forum
http://forums.net-integration.net are down, it might be a concerted
attack by the makers of aggressive malware programs targeted by
CWShredder, HijackThis, and Spybot.
This page was however working just now:
www.spywareinfo.com/~merijn/downloads.html
and it lists some other addresses that should always work:
If you are unable to download any of the files here and are redirected
to a porn page, search page or just denied access to the file, try these
alternate links that should always work:
HijackThis direct download:
http://209.133.47.12/~merijn/files/HijackThis.exe
CWShredder direct download:
http://209.133.47.12/~merijn/files/CWShredder.exe
The redirection is probably because of a Coolwebsearch variant
(CWS.Aff.Tooncomics or CWS.Dreplace) that intercepts your download to
prevent downloading my programs.
(end of quote)
If all else fails, i just downloaded CWShredder yesterday and can send
it to you privately if necessary. Please let me know.
I think i'll be downloading the newest version regularly from now on so
that i can always help people out in case the download sites are down
due to attacks. -- This is really beginning to look like a civil war,
and the government and the FBI are twiddling their thumbs and passing
laws that allow instead of outlaw spam and other indecent, harrassing,
and malicious stuff.
