Hello, firstly, thanks for this amazing tool
I can't see the Quarantine items (file(s)/folder(s)/registry etc..)
I see that message(every scan)

Hello,
Yes, you can remove these elements.
What exactly does this mean, and is this a real threat?
Yes, those elements have been detected with the heuristics detections (hence the family name).
The results of last scan:
***** [ Tasks ] *****
PUP.Adware.Heuristic, At1
PUP.Adware.Heuristic, At1
What exactly does this mean, and is this a real threat? (because the updated interface is too confusing for me). Thank you in advance.

I have no proxies on either machine.
Just updated and ran scan - still same result as yesterday as below - 280 entires found!
The Chrome entries found are simply my personalisations for the Chrome start up page! Should definately not be selected or cleaned!

Thanks for the feedback. The first time browser reset to duck was after identifying and removing 2 unwanted objectes (PUP.LEGACY.OPTIONAL). The second time it happened, however, was after the next safe mode scan in which no unwanted objects were detected.
