It was fixed here yesterday. Today I have done a scan and the immunization entries are detected again. So the huge number is back.

Hello,

The quarantine is in C:\AdwCleaner, but its format is different than how the v6 handled it, and the folders you mentionned above are related to the v6. It's not an issue, both can coexist.

It's possible that the detected elements have not been quarantined because they weren't considered as "dangerous" if being removed.

Regards,

Thanks. 10 reg keys are still detected.

Hello,

Thanks! These detections will be fixed in a few minutes with the upcoming database update. Also, please ignore "DisableAddonLoadTimePerformanceNotifications" in your case.

Hi guys I figured it out, it seems to be detecting immunization from SpywareBlaster and Spybot S&D

After removing what adwcleaner detected I was curious about my immunization and protection of my PC

it turns out adwcleaner is finding immunization entries used by spyware blaster and spyboy s&d.

I also jumped out of my seat seeing this much entries :) hope that clears this up

and hope a fix c...

Hello,

I run Windows10 Chrome -- got a malware popup when on tunein radio. Along with the following popup, a voice came on and said "your pc is infected with Malware, do not ignore this, etc:

It almost gives me a heart attack to see the number of detections that appeared to me, to wait then to correct this error.

Glad you solved the issue. Torch browser, unfortunately, is malware.

Torch browser very often came along with bundles and without user's agreement. If you install it by yourself simple remove check-marks from appropriate elements.Torch browser very often came along with bundles and without user's agreement.
