CoolWebSearch PnP

Details of the CoolWebSearch PnP are shown below. This threat can be detected and cleaned using PestBlock Anti-Spyware.

Name:CoolWebSearch PnP
Type:Adware
Risk:
Description:CoolWebSearch.PnP: a search hijacker that hides inside a specially named folder usually used for storing device driver information. Its hijacker file oemsyspnp.inf is run on each startup, using a slightly different install command each time. This command cycles through install sections 'RunOnce', 'AudioPnP', 'VideoPnp', 'IdePnP' and 'SysPnP', though quite why is unknown as it does the same thing regardless of which section is used, namely hijacking home page and search settings to point at www.adulthyperlinks.com and www.allhyperlinks.com.
