I am trying to remove two ad-ware programs and hitting a dead end.
First I want to remove the EZ-Tracks toolbar. When I open add/remove programs and click remove, nothing happens. No errors or alerts, the window kinda flickers and the item is still there.
Next I want to remove My Web Search (Cursor Mania). When I click remove, I recieve a RUNDLL error stating the following:

"Error Loading C:\PROGRA~1\MYWEBS~1\bar\1.bin\mwsbar.dll
The specified module could not be found"

I tried my Microsoft AntiSpyware, Hijackthis, and CleanUp, all with the same results. I also run ZoneAlert. I feel these programs are affecting my internet capabilities. Any ideas?

Please read the first link in my signature and follow the steps outlined there. You must install XP SP1a (hold off on SP2 until your computer is clean). Without SP1a, you are wide open to re-infection. When you are ready, post a new HijackThis log here.
