I Always use RKILL before i run ADWCleaner. Suddenly , since today, update (30-09-2014) it doesn't remove any spyware anymore. When the scan is finished, and i delete the files, i reboot. Then, when windows boots up, The annoying "scripting" ads are still there in Internet Explorer.
Hi !
the latest vers 3.309 probably have a bug..cause it always found an issue in c docs and settings all user dati applicazioni windows genuine advantage...
i put the file in quarantine..then i delete it but with a new scan with adwcleaner the file is always there...
with the previous vers of yr tool this did not happene at all...
WHY..??
I have tried to download this several times with the same result as everyone else, Norton Internet Security is treating this programme as a trojan and deletes it. I have been on the NIS website forums and people there are quoting that the programme is safe to use and providing website links for download, both the BleepingComputer and Xplode links yet is still being blocked by NIS, any ideas if there is another programme available...?

Does not detect pricechopper which is a Google Extension that I never added and keeps re-installing after deleted. Would appreciate a fix to detect from Browser. Thank you.
There's still a localisation-problem in german language:
Tools → Quarantänemananger
It must be "Quarantänemanager"! Delete only ONE "N" please.
Looks like v3.216 has a problem. On most computers, it hangs on Folders when removing items, and the only way to close it is to end the task.
And since the autocheck for an update autodeletes the old version...
Re Tom1110: Try NOT to reformat your hard disk so soon unless you absolutely have to -- it's like doing brain surgery for a hangnail -- use this challenge as an exercise to discover, quarantine and delete the culprit -- whatever malware you got is annoying BUT try doing more research online using search terms combined with "Movie Mode" before you resort to reformatting. Combine your troubleshooting techniques with Safe Mode. Do you have a real security program that you've paid for and subscribe to? -- With it you'll be able to get some real professional tech support. Good Luck.
Greetings AdWareCleaner Users & Developers: I have QUESTIONS please - How come my adwcleaner as an installed application under Vista isn't listed under my "All Programs"? ... How Come adwcleaner deletes installed apps I paid for like my Paretologic Registry Cleaner and its PCHA? Are Registry Cleaners as a group considered potential adware or malware? ... Are they even worth having? Why is there even a tab for Registry Cleaner on AdWareCleaner? ... How come there isn't a preview screen that I can edit before AdwCleaner deletes or quarantines its targeted folders or files? ... The old version of AdWareCleaner I had was installed on my desktop, how come the new one isn't? ... Is there any relationship between AdwareCleaner and MalWareBytes? How can I get back deleted or quarantined applications, files, and folders? Is there a help file I can read to spare us all from my tedious annoying questions? Instead of donating i would prefer a paid application I could buy. Thank you. (and can you post answers to PeterR5@Hotmail.com with subject line "AdWareCleaner Queries")
Hi, as report from libeccio42 and Jerry, there's some problem with speed-dial. Also in Firefox with speed-dial addon (https://addons.mozilla.org/it/firefox/addon/speed-dial/?src=ss).
After running ADW-Cleaner and reboot, the addons was deleted from Firefox. The string concerned is reported on this screenshot: http://i58.tinypic.com/fu0xt1.jpg
Thanks for attention
