Hi there, didn't come here in a while but anyway I will answer if some of you are interested. I used AutoIT to write this program, that's why it's sometimes triggering false positives in some antiviruses. As far as I know, this language really tries to use the core functions of Windows, and I think I read somewhere that it is using the same download function than Internet Explorer.
In a nutshell, that's just triggering an Internet Explorer download via the console.
Hi,
@Komeni There are warning messages. For example, one is telling you that programs will be closed during cleaning.
AdwCleaner worked perfectly for my newer computer yesterday, but for some reason whenever i try to scan on this (old) computer, there is always an error that stops and crashes the anti-adware program.
Found 41 items in HKLM/Software...but info is in complete,so i don't know if they're safe to remove or not...it also keeps adding the Sendspace and extensions folders all the time,yet I do know there is no malware in either of those. If these issues don't get fixed,I'll have to stop using the program,rather than screw up my computer by deleting something I may need.
In re: version 6 Didn't scan Firefox (or perhaps scanned it but found nothing) but there is no Firefox tab. 5.x versions showed Chrome and Firefox tabs even if they had no content. (Firefox was running while the scan was running.)
Can't grab the edge of adwcleaner to make its window larger; was possible in 5.x versions
Hi there, I check myself for updates and wonder how I can turn off email notifications of new AdwCleaner updates?
I Love the AdwCleaner program it got rid of PUP that I did everything to get rid of it. I ran this program and it cleaned out my computer and got rid of infect files and programs that was not needed or infected. Thank God for this program. The Best there is. Thank you for having it has a free program.
Brilliant tool. Extremely easy to use and hooray! did the job. So grateful. Is there anywhere I can make a donation?
