Go to this website and scroll down to the link for the uninstaller. Hopefully that will remove it but there's so many darn variations of this thing it's hard for spyware removal programs to keep up with it. Good Luck.

Rainbow32, I'm afraid CWShredder won't work in this case. We need to use a different program.
vorapolpanya, Click Here or Here to download FindnFix.exe. Double-click on the FINDnFIX.exe and it will install a folder called FINDnFIX on your system. Go to that folder and double-click on !LOG!.bat. The program takes a few minutes to collect the necessary information. When done post the contents of Log.txt back here

Just a quick bit.
Download SpySweeper from WebRoot.com.
That's the best Spyware / Adware removal tool, I've come across.
Downside though, it is only a "trial" version, with the ability to update only once. (still works after trial period)
If you look hard enough, or pay, you can get the full version though!
-
It won't remove this variant of CWS and frankly, I don't particulalry like it. It said that I had a System Monitor on my computer and those stastics were printed in Newspapers across country and I'm mad that a false positive on my machine went towards those statistics. Maybe other users had false positives. And beside, how can a Registry Entry be a High Risk system monitor?
-
Try Spybot - Search and Destroy. It is free and works great for me, even tho I also have CW shredder loaded to use when it can help..

Doesn't look like hes going to reply anyway
