Indeed. Lately, I have not been able to clean a very annoying piece of crud named "CoolWebSearch". Spybot will not always detect and never remove; Ad-aware will likely detect but not remove either. None of the other crapware removers I have tried could clean the machine either. I have instructed helpdesk not to waste any time with it and systematically re-image the infected PC :-( Fortunately, re-imaging a PC is now a matter of minutes. Michel.
