Trend Micro CWShredder is the premier tool to find and remove traces of CoolWebSearch â?? the name for a wide range of insidious browser hijackersâ?? from your PC. It removes these browser hijackers. CoolWebSearch installs dozens of bookmarksâ??mostly to porn Web sitesâ??on your desktop, changes your home page without asking, and continually changes it back if you attempt to correct it. Furthermore, it significantly slows down the performance of your PC, and introduces modifications which cause Microsoft Windows to freeze, crash or randomly reboot.

    I give it 5 because it does precisely what it claims to do in a simple, easy to use package. But this does seem to be less and less relevant as time goes on. Have not run into a CWS infestation for several months now.

    This is an invaluable tool if you're infected with the CoolWebSearch spyware.

    I'd just like to know where version 2.14 came from? The one downloaded from here as well as the intermute website posted by Mr.T below is verion 2.13.
