    no idea where this got onto my system but my two flatmates installed a bluescreen generator as a prank so that might have been it. But ive spent the last 2 days trying to remove a trojan called Briss.C

    it comes in the form of coolsearch hijacker and a few other downloader components.

    spybot, adaware, avg6 and the removal tools have all had there crack at it, plus ive edited the registry numerous times to stop it, disabled proccesses and services. ive deleted the 'Bridge' files and anything else related to it i could find.

    today notepad disappeared........and im still getting links hijacked.

    any help is much appreciated.

    If you're running Windows XP or ME, disable System Restore, reboot, rerun your virus checkers.

    Did AVG find anything, or did it say you were clean?
