Re: ADW cleaner for WinXP

Greetings,

AdwCleaner v7 no longer supports Windows XP. You can try to use the previous major version (v6) by following this link: https://toolslib.net/downloads/viewdownload/1-adwcleaner/files/851/

Please note that it's 10 months old and is no longer updated.

Also, feel free to try out Malwarebytes 3.0 (it is compatible with XP): https://toolslib.net/downloads/viewdownload/309-malwarebytes/...

Re: Cannot uninstall adwcleaner

This still leaves windows thinking it is installed and eventually leads to trouble in add/remove programs and leftover registry entries. What is needed in an uninstall/cleanup program from Malwarebytes.

Regards.
