Version 6.047 finds nothing while version 7 finds 262 elements, mostly IE registry keys + one Firefox add-on.

Only new thing I installed recently is Adguard and it is set to work only with IE11. It is not running right now.

Re: ADWCleaner & Teamviewer

Never had issues that ADWCleaner would remove my TeamViewer. You sure it was that software? Maybe it was a fluke or a trojan pretending to be TeamViewer. You could try installing TV, doing a scan with anti-virus software, ADWCleaner and maybe some form of anti-malware on top of that, to confirm or deny your thoughts.

Re: After install Torch browser from the official page adwcleaner detects malware 18

Glad you solved the issue. Torch browser, unfortunately, is malware. It is what you would call Bundleware or PUP (Potentially unwanted program), usually bundled with other more used software as part to generate more file downloads and installs. In the future always select advanced or expert options when installing, usually, they are hidden after that one checkmark. Additionally, you can do regu...

Re: 19 may last update..??..:(

Development is a process, if the tool didn't work, people wouldn't use it at all. Two essential parts of the software are updated. Virus Database and Software on your computer. The database can and usually is updated regularly on the cloud, it's how your software detects that certain programs or files are malicious.
