Removal Instructions for CoolWebSearch.control

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.


Removal Instructions
Automatic Removal:

CWS.control can be detected and removed Automatically by SpyEraser.

Manual Removal:

Follow these steps to remove CWS.control from your machine. Begin by backing up your registry and your system, and/or setting a Restore Point, to prevent trouble if you make a mistake.

  1. Start the registry editor. This is done by clicking Start then Run. (The Run dialog will appear.) Type regedit and click OK. (The registry editor will open.)
     
  2. Browse to the key:
    'HKEY_CURRENT_USER \ SOFTWARE \ Microsoft \ Windows \ CurrentVersion \ Run'. In the right pane, delete the value called 'Windows Control', if it exists. Exit the registry editor.
     
  3. Restart your computer.
     
  4. If you are running Windows NT/2000/XP, Start Windows Explorer and delete:
    %WinDir%\control.exe
    If you are running Windows 95/98/ME, use the System File Checker Tool to recover the Windows Control Panel (%WinDir%\control.exe) from the Windows Setup CD.
    Note: %WinDir% is a variable. By default, this is C:\Windows (Windows 95/98/Me/XP) or C:\WINNT (Windows NT/2000).
     
  5. Start Microsoft Internet Explorer. In Internet Explorer, click Tools -> Internet Options. Click the Programs tab -> Reset Web Settings.
