Re: SearchWWW is Back!

Hi tosime !

You say MS Antispyware detecs this reg key and remove it.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Code Store Database\Distribution
Units\{D03A1C33-1913-4533-A8C1-F2C8D13045DE}


Is the key back again?

What happens ,I mean what exactly you do.Do you turned off System Restore as
offered before scanning in Safe Mode with command prompt ?This is very
important.

Also ,does Panda detecs CoolWebSearch when you scan in Normal Mode .Just
Normal Mode.What exactly it detects ?


> IMAIL
> MAPI
> MSFS

This is ok.


Do you think the malware is gone now?Your oppinion....
