Re: Possibly False Positive - AdwCleaner

Hello Xplode, sorry for the insistance, i understand that some PUPs use this driver to capture information. However wouldn't it be possible that a legitimate program, as a Banking module might rely on this driver? Researching in the web, it seems that the signer " GAS INFORMATICA LTDA" makes some banking modules for security protection.

Furthermore, i have just scanned with OTL and found the f...

Re: Possibly False Positive - AdwCleaner

Hello,

It's related to some PUPs which are using this driver, so it's not a FP.

Possibly False Positive - AdwCleaner

Hello, it seems to be a WinDivert driver and developed by Basil Projects. Although i'm not sure which program it belongs.

In Virus total, nothing was detected.

Re: Internet issues after running adwcleaner Winsock2 being deleted

I did not uncheck the "Reset Winsock Settings", and originally discovered this issue only happens when this is checked.  I did a comparison of registry files before and after and saw that the major difference in the two was the deletion of the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\WinSock2 registry folders and sub folders - literally everything in that was deleted.

Here is the c...

Re: Internet issues after running adwcleaner Winsock2 being deleted

Hello Xplode,

Thanks for your time looking into this matter.  I apologize I was away and not able to assist shortly after reporting this issue.  I had noticed that you had released a couple of newer versions while I was away, so I downloaded and ran the newest one 5.109, but the issue persisted.  Please note that I am not deleting any files or folders that your program detects (as there are so...

- While holding [Shift], right-click on that executable file and select ‘Run as a different user’

- Enter your local administrator credentials

Re: False Positives UpdateStar

Hello,

Unfortunately, UpdateStar Driver is tendancious. A recent analysis of the setup still shows that it bundles PUP. (for example : http://www.herdprotect.com/drivers.exe-9655a4ccf88f7cd59f6e4830087e40658c3604c6.aspx )

AdwCleaner falsely reports several items related to the tools UpdateStar and UpdateStar Drivers. Here is an excerpt from a log file:

Sorry for the false positive, it has been removed (the change will be effective soon).

You can recover the files by using the quarantine manager : https://toolslib.net/forum/viewthread/182-en-adwcleaner-documentation/

  • Launch AdwCleaner,
  • Click on "Tools" -> "Quarantine manager"
  • Tick the GCC folder and "Restore".
