AFrevenue: Are you kidding? Cool Web Search itself as a company has an entire section which exists only to come up with new ways to infect and MAINTAIN the infection on end user's computers. That isn't some 3rd rate hacker spewing viruses, it is a business plan and concentrated effort by coolwebsearch itself to control the world by controlling the PCs by the use of trojans which are almost impossible to remove. They have literally HUNDREDS of variations of the infection just to keep it on your system.

You might want to consult google on this one. Did you know there is a tool called cwshredder? it is specifically made to try to remove the overwhelming collwebsearch infections.

As for the reason for the banning, I don't know. But i often investigate hosts by raising their home page to see what is there. If I see coolwebsearch, I think scam, and the host is immediately TOAST.

I am not 100% comfortable right now that you are a "host" in the normal sense, perhaps just a friend lending a friend some space.
