While doing a search on google for info on CWS, I clicked on one of the links, but it turned out to be a site related to www.coolwebsearch.com. While CWShredder hasn't found anything, I ran HijackThis and there are one or two things that I don't remember being in the list last time. Here's the HJT log:
