Re: Potential false positives?

UPDATE: Just did a search for any Crossrider folders, didn't find anything. I think pando is used by several MMOs.

also Roguekiller and Mbam's threat scan didnt find anything

Re: Can I remove these folders/keys safely with adware cleaner?

PUP is a potentially unwanted program. Basically, something that comes with bundleware or through other sources. As fr33tux mentioned, you should just remove them and not worry about it much. In general, if you see something with WARE in scans, it is some form of malware.

Re: Can I remove these folders/keys safely with adware cleaner?

Hello,

Yes, you can remove these elements.

What exactly does this mean, and is this a real threat?

Yes, those elements have been detected with the heuristics detections (hence the family name).

Re: Can I remove these folders/keys safely with adware cleaner?

The results of last scan:

***** [ Tasks ] *****

PUP.Adware.Heuristic, At1

PUP.Adware.Heuristic, At1

What exactly does this mean, and is this a real threat? (because the updated interface is too confusing for me). Thank you in advance.
