Boris Posted January 27, 2004 Report Share Posted January 27, 2004 From http://www.safer-networking.org/ - home of SpyBotCoolWWWSearch.SmartKiller (v1 and v2) is a new, real ugly variant of CoolWWWSearch. When running, it will close every browser window you use to visit a large list of anti-spyware-sites, and even will close Spybot-S&D and some other anti-spyware applications as well.So if your copy of Spybot-S&D (or the anti-spyware application of your choice) closes a few seconds after starting, or your browser closes whenever you try to visit an anti-spyware site, check our CWS.SmartKiller removal utility on this page :- http://www.safer-networking.org/files/delcwssk.zipIt terminates certain anti-adware/spyware-related processes and sets the startup page of Internet Explorer to smartsearch.ws.It also adds the following entries to the C:\Windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts file to block access to selected anti-spyware and security websites:127.0.0.1 forums.spywareinfo.com127.0.0.1 www.spywareinfo.com127.0.0.1 spywareinfo.com127.0.0.1 www.computercops.biz127.0.0.1 computercops.biz127.0.0.1 dslreports.com127.0.0.1 www.dslreports.com127.0.0.1 www.lavasoftsupport.com127.0.0.1 lavasoftsupport.com127.0.0.1 www.lurkhere.com127.0.0.1 lurkhere.com127.0.0.1 forums.net-integration.net127.0.0.1 www.pctalk.info127.0.0.1 pctalk.info127.0.0.1 www.suggestafix.com127.0.0.1 suggestafix.com127.0.0.1 forums.thiefware.com127.0.0.1 www.tomcoyote.org127.0.0.1 tomcoyote.org127.0.0.1 www.wilderssecurity.com127.0.0.1 wilderssecurity.com127.0.0.1 www.winguides.com127.0.0.1 winguides.com127.0.0.1 www.spybot-spyware.com127.0.0.1 spybot-spyware.com127.0.0.1 1spybot.com127.0.0.1 www.1spybot.com127.0.0.1 www.lavasoftusa.com127.0.0.1 lavasoftusa.com127.0.0.1 www.spychecker.com127.0.0.1 spychecker.com127.0.0.1 www.grc.com127.0.0.1 grc.com127.0.0.1 www.cexx.org127.0.0.1 cexx.org127.0.0.1 security.kolla.de127.0.0.1 www.security.kolla.de127.0.0.1 simplythebest.net127.0.0.1 www.simplythebest.net127.0.0.1 www.spywareguide.com127.0.0.1 spywareguide.com127.0.0.1 www.spyware.co.uk127.0.0.1 spyware.co.uk127.0.0.1 www.lavasoft.de127.0.0.1 lavasoft.de127.0.0.1 www.webopedia.com127.0.0.1 webopedia.com127.0.0.1 www.ZeroSpyWare.com127.0.0.1 ZeroSpyWare.com127.0.0.1 www.spectorsoft.com127.0.0.1 spectorsoft.com127.0.0.1 www.Spy--Software.com127.0.0.1 Spy--Software.com127.0.0.1 www.sunbelt-software.com127.0.0.1 sunbelt-software.com127.0.0.1 www.spycleaner.net127.0.0.1 spycleaner.net127.0.0.1 www.EnigmaSoftwareGroup.com127.0.0.1 EnigmaSoftwareGroup.com127.0.0.1 www.no-spybot.com127.0.0.1 no-spybot.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
