Why is CWShredder closing suddenly when I run it?

There are a few CWS trojans, as well as newer viruses, that attempt to close CWShredder, HijackThis, Spybot S&D, Ad-aware and a handful of antispyware programs and online help forums when you try tothem. To counter this, CWShredder has been updated. Start it again when it suddenly closes and it should work. If it still doesn’t work, download PepiMK’s CoolWWWSearch.Smartsearch killer and run that first, then use CWShredder to clean up. If the Smartsearch killer does not help, ask for help on a forum with removing a resident trojan.
