hey buddy, thx for the advice... I got spybot and ad-
aware, however, my problem is weirdly not going away...
the homepage keeps reverting to this
http://www.coolsearch.biz every few seconds, and I still
cannot access the View Files/View Objects lists under
Settings.... this is really starting to frustrate me, as
I have run checks and deleting lots of "detected errors"
with spybot and ad-aware, but the problems are going
away... especially the homepage thing, its like
permanent... =*(
