You need to download "CWShredder" and in case it doesn't remove it, you'll

need another application such as "Malwarebytes Anti-Malware" or "A Squared

Free". Also look in the Run registry keys and delete the related value, also

look in the the MSConfig Startup programs (in case there's some related

application) Start\Run\type; msconfig and hit Enter, next go to the Startup

tab and uncheck suspicious programs if any are found. Also use "CCleaner" to

delete Cookies, Temporary Internet files, System Temp and user Temp files.

 

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run

Try:

 

http://www.pchell.com/support/mywebsearch.shtml

 

or: http://forums.techguy.org/web-email/270010-my-web-search-toolbar.html

 

http://micksta17bsa.wordpress.com/2006/10/28/warning-dont-download-the-my-web-search-toolbar/

 

 

Then run Spybot Search & Destroy:

http://www.safer-networking.org/en/mirrors/index.html

 

To remove any leftover registry entries,download & install Regseeker & click the

"Find in Registry" & type in MyWebSearch (no spaces) & let it scan.

I would stay away from the "Clean the registry" feature of the program & just use it

for removing *specific* registry entries & always have the "backup before deletion"

box checked.
