Here are most of the entries I could find. I believe the Hotspot Shield drivers might be the culprit. One user had a driver inside Device Manager. Replacing that driver with one from another working computer seems to have corrected the connection issue.

Folder Deleted : C:\ProgramData\hotspot shield

Folder Deleted : C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\hotspot shield

Folder Deleted : C:\Program Files (x86)\hotspot shield

Folder Deleted : C:\Windows\SysWOW64\hotspot shield

Key Deleted : HKCU\Software\anchorfree

Folder Found : C:\Users\Sid\AppData\Roaming\hotspot shield

This latest version has many false positives. In favorites, i have a folder name 'online' it is detecting that folder. In registry, it is detecting IDM helper addon for IE (I have Internet download manager installed). In firefox, it is detecting an addon xpi file 'SuperDrag', i have been using this addon for months it is not a adware. Please fix this problems if possible.

Thanks a lot for this superb program.

After running you program the only things I could see listed were the files under the files tab. I selected them and selected the clean button. Your program cleaned them, closed my computer and rebooted. All seemed well until I went into my task manager. To my surprise under the processes tab, 82 Background Processes were listed in addition to 5 Apps. Many seemed to be duplicates (25) (Google Chrome (32 bit). Is this normal? Was it a mistake to delete those files? If so can it be reversed? If not why wasn't there a strong warning stating the consequences?

Adwcleaner is now picking up registry key entries (not folders or files) of Internet Download Manager. A legitimate downloading software that did not use to be picked up in previous versions of Adwcleaner. Please white-list Internet Download Manager.

I downloaded the 4101 version and it does not run (Windows 7 user administrator). I run an earlier version (3311) and ok. The baidu virus was installed (there is software to manage and prevent unauthorized user facilities?) And I think he (even removed the 3311 version) is preventing version 4.101 to perform. Any tips?
Thanks, Er - Brazil

I hope and wish, that some annoying translation bugs for the german language will finally disappears... especially "Quarantänemananger" and new bugs in tabs for Firefox and Chrome

Bonsoir,
J'ai refait l'analyse de la version 4.002 et même résultat.
Je n'ose pas mettre ici toutes les lignes au risque de monopoliser la page, je vais donc les mettre sur le message suivant, au besoin vous pourrez supprimer le message s'il est trop long.
Je veux juste savoir si je peux supprimer le tout sans problème.
Ou alors j'attends la mise à jour.

Bonjour.
Confirmation, la 4.002 est complètement loupée et à éviter totalement en attendant une mise à jour qui ne devrait pas tarder...
Chez moi en résumé, effacement du profil de Firefox 33.02 (préférences).
(Vu l'énormité des dégâts potentiels ne n'avais lancé le nettoyage que parce que j'avais une image...)
+ une clé de registre HKCU à mon sens très probablement anodine (répertoire vide dans une clé paraissant légitime)
NOTA: ensuite j'avais refait une analyse sur une image précédente: Même punition, même motif. (Fermez le ban)
La 4.002 est toujours en téléchargement à l'heure ou j'écris ce commentaire.
