About CoolWebSearch.Cpan
CoolWebSearch.control is a browser hijacker redirecting
your browser to www.search2004.net, www.windowws.cc and super-spider.com.
Another sign of infection is a non-working Windows Control
Panel if you are running Windows 95/98/ME.
CoolWebSearch.control replaces the legitimate control panel
file (%WinDir%\control.exe) with its own file.
