    CW Shredder is not "installed" on your computer, it is a stand-alone application. It consists only of the single CWShredder.exe file. If you delete that file, it is gone, there are no other files associated with it.

    Right-Click on the Recycle Bin, then Left-Click on "Properties". Make sure the box marked with the red dot is not checked.

    :scratch:

    Try booting up in Safe Mode, make a junk file (create a new shortcut to something - it doesn't matter what), delete it and see what happens.

    You might also want to post a HijackThis log. You can get it here.

    Turn off System Restore, boot up in Safe Mode, then run HijackThis and delete the following:

    This one can be used by legitimate programs and is designed to allow a software developer to enable a program to automatically update itself. I've never liked this, as it could just as easily allow a malicious program to do the same. If any of my programs get "updated" I want to know about it and be in on the process. :D

    If you're absolutely sure what program installed it and want to keep it you can leave it.

    Before you reboot, do a search of your hard drive for all of the files listed above ending in .dll or .exe. Make a new folder, move the files into it, then change the last character to "_" (i.e. make them end in .ex_ or .dl_). That way if it causes other troubles you can easily change them back.

    Then post a new log so we can see how it went. :)
