default-homepage-network.com + spy wiper

[DW]

http://default-homepage-network.com/ hijacks the IE homepage.

Then this POS opens the CDROM bay, then opens notepad and tells you to
download "spy wiper".

I've tried Ad-Aware with the latest RFC and SpyBot to no avail. Also
tried CWshredder.. still no success.. Running XP Pro.

Any ideas? THanks - DW

It is a brand new CWS varient. CWShredder was just updated so try the new
version. IE-SPYAD detects this so look for the update topic here. If no
joy then get HijackThis: http://mjc1.com/mirror/hjt/

Which version of Spybot did you use? It recognized this POS on my
computer and apparently has gotten rid of it. I just downloaded Spybot
Search and Destroy, an advanced mode version. Nothing else worked.
