Another twist to the same problem

Here is another twist to the same problem.  

On 2019-11-22 I downloaded the beta V8.0.0 of AdwCleaner from https://toolslib.net/downloads/viewdownload/1-adwcleaner/.  It worked fine..

On 2019-11-22 I visited the website again and saw what looked like the same the same beta.  Except I just happened to notice the note saying 'about 9 hours ago', and happened to remember that I had downloaded th...

Confusing filenames

The ADW Downloads page currently offers three downloads:

AdwCleaner    7.4.1    Release

AdwCleaner    7.4.1    Beta

AdwCleaner    7.4       Release

I had previously downloaded the Beta when only the second and third lines were there (it seemed to work well),   When the top line appeared this morning, I assumed from the filename that the Release was the same file, but I wondered about it, an...

Re: False Positives

I got the exact same results after downloading version 7.2.2, so it probably is a FP.

Re: Malwarebytes 3 and avira

Hello,

It's not only for Avira users - as I said above, it may result on unpredicted conflicts.

I do not recommend having multiple antiviruses running at the same time.

AdwCleaner 7.2.0 indicated version?

File properties and info show version 7.1.1.0, same as previous release, but the file when run shows 7.2.0 in the title bar, same as indicated on the ToolsLib download page. FYI.

 

Re: Malwarebytes 3 and avira
