Greetings,

About KLM\SOFTWARE\CLASSES\APPID\{93469602-4134-4012-A6BC-3E73B9855F90}, this entry is related to a potentialy unwanted software (AuslogicsBoostSpeed).

About WinZip, it seems to come with nasty things (repack/bundle). Of course, we stands against such practices. We'll do some more research on that, I'll keep you informed.

KLM means Hkey Local Machines in Regedit right? I can't find that string of letters on my registry. I checked and I don't even have winzip (just WinRAR, but that's completly different huh?) or AuslogicsBoostSpeed installed. So is this nothing to be concerned with?

UPDATE: There's another thread with the problem here

https://toolslib.net/forum/viewthread/9673-adwcleaner-not-deleting-threat/

seems they also can't find them in the registry

Re: False positive?

Hi again,

It will be fixed in a few minutes. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Regards.

Re: False positive?

Re: False positive?

It was an error with two new definitions, sorry about this.
