Angry mysearch.com

Somehow I have downloaded some content that included activating "mysearch.com"

In the past weeks it has taken over doing searches on my computer and I have to go to google to do any searches.

I use to be able to type in my topic to search in the URL space and MS 2000 Pro would enable a search. Now I either get a search page with the mysearch.com logo or it goes to a web page named conginen.com.

I've tried to uninstall all to no avail. ANyone know how to get this evil program off my computer?

it sounds like it could be a virus or trojan too.

read this posting:

or this report:
http://securityresponse.symantec.co...moval.tool.html

see if your symptoms fit any of those.
