Re: Popup Ads in IE6 when using Google

If you're still following this,I followed all steps but computer still infected. General slowdown including Windows Explorer and pop-ups in IE6 when going to Google.

Ad-Aware shows CoolWebSearch. Of course I can delete the entries but they return on reboot.

Posted to forum Tues AM but no response yet.
