What is this?

I ran Spybot and Ad Aware and MyWebSearch doesn't go away, Is it something I don't need to worry about?

 

After scanning with Spybot....what are you actually being informed about concerning MyWebSearch ?

Something similar to the below registry entry

HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\ZoneMap\Domains\mywebsearch.net

 

I don't know anything about things I bring up from antispyware, so I always ask what to do about it.

 

There is no way anyone can offer a proper answer unless a little more info is shared. If you do not mind....would you Please scan with Spybot again and make note of what it is finding in reference to MyWebSearch. Also....would you Please provide the version of Spybot you are using by opening the program and selecting the top menu selections Help\About

It would be beneficial if you could also upload the latest Spybot scan result for review as an attachment to your next post Please.

According to your operating system....there should be a .txt file with todays date(assuming you will scan again today).....that's located in the below folder location.

Win95\98....C:\Windows\Application Data\Spybot - Search & Destroy\Logs

Win2000 or XP....C:\Documents and Settings\All users\Spybot - Search & Destroy\Logs

 

I am a novice, so I may ask stupid quesstions. I need a link to the spybot site to down load the newest version. 1.3.

 

No question is stupid....and you have proven you are getting better at troubleshooting your problems

I fixed my McAfee

I suggest you be sure and follow the below instructions before installing the newest version 1.4
