I had a computer that was infected with a browser hijacking called gamersinfo.org but Adwcleaner didn't pick it up. Maybe you haven't added it to the database so would really appriciate if you did.

Bitdefender Total Security 2014 me détecte une vérole dès que je veux télécharger la version 4.107.
"Le fichier C:\Users\[MonNom]\AppData\Local\Temp\a9B3yjOH.exe a été infecté par Gen:Variant.Graftor.171167."

@tonypl6 : It was a "small" bug in the database. It has been fixed yesterday with the database update.
Sorry for the desagrement,

Salut à vous,
J'ai actuellement constaté une chose étrange sur AdwCleaner 4.106:
il me détecte le dossier qui contient Adblock comme malveillant:
C:\Users\nom\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default\Extensions\gighmmpiobklfepjocnamgkkbiglidom
Suis-je le seul ?

There are two wrong definitions in the database, please correct that.

***** [ Files / Folders ] *****
Folder Found : C:\Users\%User%\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\0ct1cmlj.default\Extensions\{4cc4a13b-94a6-7568-370d-5f9de54a9c7f}
Folder Found : C:\Users\%User%\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\0ct1cmlj.default\Extensions\{b9db16a4-6edc-47ec-a1f4-b86292ed211d}

Those are two firefox plugins:
Download Helper: https://addons.mozilla.org/bg/firefox/addon/video-downloadhelper/
Empty Cache Button: https://addons.mozilla.org/bg/firefox/addon/empty-cache-button/

Of course check that.
I'm running Windows 8.1 Enterprise (x86), Firefox 34.0;
I've donated you three times.
Do that and there will be a fourth.
Thank you!

@ewald81375:
The tasks "Rocket Updater" and "APSnotifierPP1"/"APSnotifierPP2" are already in the current database.
There isn't more I can say for now, sorry.

For those complaining about XP compatibility, I'm a XP Pro user and I can confirm AdwCleaner is fully compatible with XP. Like everybody though, I have had trouble with version 4, but it has been fixed. The latest 4.103, however, shows a little progress bar for loading the database right before opening the program. It also takes a little too long for the scan to run. Other than that, it works.

By the way, why aren't we getting prompted to install the latest version anymore?

And, I really miss when the program would update without having to download a new .exe file.

Bonjour,
Nouveau problème de AdwCleaner version 4.101
Concerne les clés de registre appartenant à Norton Ghost 15
Ci-dessous le copié collé de ce que trouvait AdwCleaner version 4 précédente

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Installer\UserData\S-1-5-18\Components\0FF2AEFF45EEA0A48A4B33C1973B6094]
"3475520BB5615DB4D88A73FD9B390051"="C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Norton Ghost\\Agent\\msvcr71.dll"

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Installer\UserData\S-1-5-18\Components\305B09CE8C53A214DB58887F62F25536]
"3475520BB5615DB4D88A73FD9B390051"="C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Norton Ghost\\msvcp71.dll"

Depuis la version AdwCleaner 4.101, il ne fait plus référence qu'à la clé 0FF2AEFF45EEA0A48A4B33C1973B6094

Autoriser le nettoyage oblige à la désinstallation complète de Norton Ghost et de toutes ses valeurs dans le registre afin de pouvoir le réinstaller à neuf.
Autant dire, la galère...

Merci d'apporter une solution

Bonsoir,
J'ai installé la version 4.101 im'a trouvé dans le registre les clés suivantes:
Clé Présente : [x64] HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Installer\UserData\S-1-5-18\Components\3152E1F19977892449DC968802CE8964
Clé Présente : [x64] HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Installer\UserData\S-1-5-18\Components\649A52D257CA5DB4EAAE8BA9EB23E467
J'ai un gros doute sur ses 2 clés. Je n'ai donc pas nettoyé; Pouvez-vous me confirmer qu'il ne s'agit pas de faux-positifs.
Merci
