BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! You ****witted ****, Bullis. "about:blank" is a variant
of CoolWebSearch. ****ing with the registry isn't going to remove it, nor is
clearing the browser cache, and a ****ing firewall isn't going to prevent
CoolWebSearch and its variants getting onto the system. You are one utterly
****witted nincompoop, Bullis.
