ctownboy,
You're welcome! I'd still suggest downloading, installing, and running HijackThis, and submitting a log, just in case there are other things lurking on your machine!

Please see this article about getting rid of Dubolom.com. It's apparently a variant of CoolWebSearch, and, according to the article, can be removed using "CWShredder". There's a download link in the article.
I do not recommend using Dublom.com's own uninstaller. That's just because I don't trust sites that distribute homepage hijackers to remove their installation without causing more problems.
If you continue to have problems after running CWShredder, please post back.
(edit) Even if everything looks OK after running CWShredder, there may be more problems lurking. Could you download HiJackThis, and post a log, so we can make sure things are really all better? Here's a "Quickstart guide" about installing and running HijackThis that you'll find helpful.
Thanks,
Jim
