My homepage keeps getting changed to http://your-searcher.com/sp.htm and it's driving me mad. Thought it might be a variant of coolweb search so I've run CWShredder which did detect and remove coolwebsearch but it keeps recurring.

Also, when I shut down the pc it says ending program Win Min and a few minutes later it says it can't shut down the program.

Can anyone help me stop this?

Here is acopy of the hijack this log:-

The homepage when I'm surfing the net. I haven't made any changes to my forum lately.

When I was online last night looking at a site Norton Antivirus popped up and said "malicious script detected" so I left the site and logged off but ever since I keep getting diverted to this new homepage.

AdAware should remove any spyware on your computer.

if ad-aware doesn't find it, give spybot search & distroy a go. Also free, and it's found some things on my computer that ad-aware didn't (and vice versa).

Also try Spysweeper at www.webroot.com It picks up a lot of things Spybot leaves behind. It's free as well.

If you'd posted this in the correct forum to start with, you would have received the help you were looking for much quicker.
