Things just got interesting: http://www.howtogeek.com/209654/scammers-are-using-a-fake-version-of-adwcleaner-to-trick-people/
"The ironic thing is that the real AdwCleaner doesn’t actually detect this fake version at this point."
^ You might want to fix that if it hasn't already been dealt with.
Anyone having issues with the latest version removing ScreenConnect Remote Access Software? (https://www.screenconnect.com/). Is there any way to whitelist this or can we add an permanent exclusion?
Use this program all the time with success, but now running into this issue.
Also, anyway to help support development? Donation?
Just downloaded to update my version, but can't run it because Norton antivirus detects a thread and deletes it immediately. The threat is identified as 'Suspicious.Cloud.7.EP'.
Not sure if this is a false positive, but don't want to take a chance on it. Please verify the software, clean it if necessary and update the download link (or post a note). Txs.
The following entries are false positives:
C:\Documents and Settings\User\Application Data\ProgSense (included with some software to look for updates - nothing malicious or deceiving)
C:\Documents and Settings\User\Application Data\Simple Adblock (adblocker now known as Adblock Plus knowingly installed by user for Internet Explorer)
C:\Documents and Settings\User\Local Settings\Application Data\Hola (knowingly installed by user)
HKCU\Software\ProgSense (included with some software to look for updates - nothing malicious or deceiving)
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Classes\CLSID\{459DD0F7-0D55-D3DC-67BC-E6BE37E9D762} (belongs to ZoomBrowser EX, a Canon camera utility)
The following are proxy settings knowingly added by user:
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings [ProxyEnable] - 1
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings [ProxyOverride] - *.local
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings [ProxyServer] - socks=localhost:1234
Thanks in advance for correcting the issue.
Merci pour ce logiciel miracle. Il a déjà débloqué des situations désespérées chez des personnes (amis, famille) que j'ai dépannées.
Une question: la dernière version (adwcleaner_4.110) signale "Everything", logiciel de recherche hyper-efficace et absolument indispensable que j'utilise en permanence depuis longtemps, comme élément à supprimer.
Pourquoi donc ?
New version of Adwcleaner (4.1.10) is being recognized as false positive by Avast Antivirus! Win32: Evo-gen [Susp]
@marie54 Vous pouvez toujours désactiver la protection résidente d'Avast pendant l'utilisation d'AdwCleaner. Sinon, d'ici quelques jours, vous devriez pouvoir télécharger cette version. Les versions récentes d'AdwCleaner sont très souvent détectées à tort pendant quelques temps après la mise en ligne de celles-ci.
bonjour juste pour signalé que je ne peux pas téléchargé la version v4.110 avast le bloque donc impossible pour moi de m'en servir
plus qu'a attendre la nouvelle :(
bonjour meme avec la version 4.110 il y a toujours un faux positif pour le logiciel IDM (Internet Download Manager http://www.internetdownloadmanager.com/download.html ) si on supprime les clé de registre affichés cela demande ensuite de reinstaller IDM et on a toujours ce faux positif Rapport pour IDM:
Clé Trouvée : HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Ext\Settings\{0055C089-8582-441B-A0BF-17B458C2A3A8}

@cocochepeau Hi, As, after AdwCleaner requested to restart the computer after scan and clean, I was not able to log in anymore into the standard account from where I ran AdwCleaner, Therefore I didn't get the report, but I guess it should still be somewhere on my computer. I ran again AdwCleaner but with starting the scan, just to see if it sees the report, but the Report button is grayed out. I downloaded several versions of AdwCleaner, so I may not ran the same version. I don't know if that matters. On the other hand, if I press uninstall (without actually starting the uninstall) I see the files from the quarantine, but not the changes made to the registry. For the files you may take a look at: http://1drv.ms/16uCsum
