mwsoemon.exe Is placed in Memory. I know this to be a fact because NOD32 Anti Virus System found it there and alerts . Great SW by the way and fantastic support. I have not had problems with popups as mentioned and I think they follow your IP address etc. Not a problem for me I enjoy using them. It is SAD they don't offer us a free product that don't have nasties included. I do not check the box to allow MySearch to be my search engine.

smileycentral and/or cursormania spawned - add/remove progs - remove any my 'web search plugins' related progs - ZoneAlarm (I recommend) alerted me constantly to the behaviour of this program. Any way we can invoice the creators of this intrusive software for removal from system?

My firewall detects it on start up. My firewall states that it is trying to launch and is able to track keystrokes, etc. I just always DENY it.

popups etc as mentioned above. Is part of one of those annoying web search toolbars (MyWebSearch I think it was) - removed from this system easily using add/remove programs. Process no longer running so solved. Had smileycentral at one point on this PC so is again probably where it came from.

I've had this forever!! I love my smiley central and my web search, and it has "never" redirected me, hijacked me, or put up "any" popups... so I don't know why it's doing that to other people.. but it has caused me no probs what so ever

I am unsure of it's function but Windows Defender doesn't classify it as spyware, I deleted it nonetheless.
