Thanks Janet, stumbled upon that myself but I am missing most of the things that they say pegs that as the problem. Norton has never found a file like that before..I am debating just deleting it. its obviously not needed or else there would be some forum info telling you what the hell it is. Alas if I could only find where the hell it was hiding

WinTasks Process Library loader - loader.exe - Process Information Process File: loader or loader.exe Process Name: Loader Description: Application that hijacks a user?s home page and redirects the browser to coolwwwsearch.com.
