Clearly either you 'have' been infected with 'mywebsearch' or you still are
Ill have to reask, have you UPDATED malwarebytes and run a FULL scan? If not then thats what you need to be doing next (And post the WHOLE log when its finished)
If you already have then ~
Download SUPERANTISPYWARE (Make sure you click 'DOWNLOAD LATEST VERSION')

UPDATE and PERFORM COMPLETE SCAN
(Then goto console and LOGS and post the log it created then untick it from STARTING UP WITH WINDOWS):idea:0 -
Once its clean you also need to install SERVICE PACK 2 for Vista
Is Norton a 3 month trial? If so then you need to use the removal tool (NOT just uninstall), and install some security on it
Id personally advise Avira anti virus and PC TOOLS firewall:idea:0
