I recently got a bad infection of CWS. CWS Shredder could find it and remove it but in less than 2 minutes all the malware would reload itself. Unfortunately I let my Norton subscription run out. I renewed it and ran it and it removed most of the CWS that was showing up in the shredder. Most of the problems I am having now are:
- Internet Explorer will load most pages (but not others like yahoo.com or won't completely load some others)
- IE itself is fairly slow in actually loading. Most of the time Google times out.
- Task Manager won't load ( I get "disabled by admin" but I am the admin and only have one log in)
- Windows search can't find taskmgr.exe just some files associated with it.
-CWShredder is still finding cws.smartsearch, cws.msconfd, cws.smartfinder
I have turned Norton off to make sure it is not being too protective and preventing the websites from running. I have deleted all history/temp/cache files. None of this has helped any.
I downloaded and ran hijack this and have attached my log. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Me and my fiancee are planning a wedding for September and the computer on the fritz has been a big hinderance!
