I made a sincere mistake about 2 years ago installing the CoolWeb Search (now that I think about it, it installed itself). Through months of work, visits to ComputerCops, etc., I found that it actually starts installing on bootup, even before you see a cursor. Eventually I had to reformat the Hard drive.

So don't install these things unless you're absolutely sure of the source (and probably not even then).

I wish I'd said that.. The Staircase Wit
