Download CWShredder and run it. It should get rid of any cool web search malware in your computer.

June 17, 2007 at 11:55 am #160064Salih19MemberWell in my opinion Kaspersky is ALMOST the perfect antivirus solution, However what i dont like about Kaspersky (this includes all versions) is that the program will always conflict with most other programs.
Thats the only reason i dont use it anymore. 🙁
Apart from that i think its perfect.June 18, 2007 at 8:00 pm #160059DavidParticipantWhat do you mean conflict with “most other programs,” do you mean other AV solutions? Because if thats the case, you shouldn’t be using more than one anyway, since they generally will conflict.
June 19, 2007 at 12:48 am #160065Salih19MemberWell for example kaspersky av and norton internet security conflicts, Even when av on norton internet security is disabled, If you install norton av or any of norton products first, theres a auto update file (forgot the name).
When uninstalling norton av or any norton product that auto update file will still remain in your registry, and i noticed if you dont delete it kaspersky will conflict with it.
Norton software leaves that file in your registy so that next time you install any norton software the auto update file is ready to be used.
I tryied my best to explain but if any questions feel free to ask. 🙂 Im no good with explaining things, LOL
June 19, 2007 at 5:20 am #160058DavidParticipantPretty much every decent AV solution warns that you should never install multiple. They know that they conflict, that’s just the nature of this type of software.
June 19, 2007 at 11:25 am #160063Salih19MemberTrue however antivirus and internet security software is two different software types.
