Re: http://www.adwaredelete.com/
searchservices.info? That's the Impro/ICommerce group, who are behind CWS hijacks such as CWS/DownCom, CWS/StartBHO and CWS/Firestarter. See qck.cc, find-help.org, yeahsearch.net, iehelp.net, iwantsearch.com, web-res.biz and so on ad infinitum.
On the balance of things, I probably wouldn't buy an anti-malware application from them. You know, just saying. |

that came in with a CWS_NS3 (Home Search Assistant)
infection on a machine at work. I spent most of the rest
of that afternoon removing it.
The CWS gang seem to branching out into more traditional
malware, such as botnet clients and keyloggers lately.

I believe adwaredelete's holding company, MK Digital Media LLC. would call it diversifying. Google'em up. |

I have Norton on my PC. I also used Spybot and Ad- Aware, neither removed the file. If I go to Norton Virus Removal page how do I know which file to use? |

| Hey Sash, thanks for the offer. I need HELP!!! I made the mistake of serching for this problem and found an answer on www.malwarebytes.biz Unfortunately now after following these steps my computer is awful. I am not writing this from my PC because apparently I disabled the service "Remote Access Auto Connectiion Manager and Remote Access Connection" I am unable to enable these again. I am sure this is only the beginning of my problem, but do you have any idea how i can enable these? When i click onto the service it wont give me any options??
Anything you can do will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Mike |

I have a question, do you know how to enable a service. Currently I have diabled the "Remote Access Service" and I can't enable it? When I click on the service it doesn't give me any options?
Any advice will be appreciated.
Thanks. |
