Coolwwwsearch

I seem to have picked up Coolwwwsearch but have no ill effects on my Windows '98 system. Anyway, how do I get rid of this stuff? I thought Spy Bot would do the job but apparently not.

Actually, the only reason I think I may have it is that it shows up in items scanned when running Spybot. My Windows '98 system runs perfectly. Is it possible that my PC is clean?
