Question
0websearch.com hijack
My start page has been hijacked by 0websearch.com, which is another Cool Web Search variant. I've tried using:
AdAware
Spybot
CWSshredder
But 0websearch keeps coming back. It's also slowing my internet access down to a standstill.
Here's my HijackThis log:

Do this:
Go to this directory:
C:\WINNT\Downloaded Program Files (or if you're XP, then it's: C:\Windows\Downloaded Program Files)
You will see a bunch of files. Look under the column called "Status". Look at the ones that say "Installed"
Now, right click on one and select "Properties". Under the "General" Tab, look at the line that says "Codebase". This is usually a URL. This URL will most likely be the website that is giving you the problem. It will say something like "http://www.0websearch.com
Keep on right-clicking and checking the properties of all these files until you find the one that looks suspicious (you can narrow the choices down by looking at the creation data column and finding only those that coorespond to the timeframe when this started)
Once you find the one you're looking for, right click on the file and select "remove"
This should solve your problem.
