Everytime I try to go online my PG2 blocks something called CWS Exploits. I've found out that it is a CoolWebSearch! spyware hijacker. I ran Spybot, Microsoft AntiSpyware, Ad-Aware, Webroot Spysweeper and nothing seems to get rid of it. I even ran CWShredder and that didn't detect or correct the problem either. The only way I can surf the web is to disable PG2 or run in Linux.

I ran HijackThis and here is the logfile:

I'm running Windows XP Professional x64 and use Firefox browser mostly, though IE cannot get on the web either unless I disable PG2. I deleted cookies and my internet cache and that did nothing. I also uninstalled and reinstalled the 64bit PG2 and it still detects CWS Exploits. What other programs can I use? One's that I've been recommended I have to pay for.

Please someone help me!

Just an idea. Run your spyware cleaners in safe mode. If you tried that already, then nvm.

Also a tip. (if system restore is on)

When dealing with hard to remove adware/virusses, try, when removing it, to disable system restore. When you finished scanning and removing them, put restore back on.

Tried spyware cleaners in safe mode; didn't work. Tried vundofix.exe and that didn't work. Tried with system restore off, but they still don't find anything since I first initally ran the scan on Wednesday night.

Is there anything else I can do? I've never had a spyware problem as bad as this before.

Ok, I seemed to fix it for now. I did a system restore to monday while in safe mode. I really hope I don't have that CWS Exploits show up again.

Format.

And then properly secure your machine the next time. It's not that hard and you don't even need to run another browser (although that always helps).

Oh, and does that PhysX card work? I didn't think any games supported it?
