CoolWebShredder - Removing CWS Variants



What is it?
CoolWebSearch is a browser hijacker that changes your start page, redirects you to other sites, adds porn links and causes all kinds of problems in Windows. It is a rapidly developing family of trojans that carries some characteristics of scumware programs and exploits a security flaw in the Java Virtual Machine.

Removal Program
The best program to remove this trojan and all variants is called CoolWebShredder, coded by a student in the Netherlands and updated constantly.

What does it Remove?
The program removes all of the following:

  • CWS.Datanotary
  • CWS.Bootconf
  • CWS.Oslogo
  • CWS.Msspi
  • CWS.Vrape
  • CWS.Oemsyspnp
