@Yotony: Norton thinks that everything is a virus. I wouldn't give that detection one shred of credibility.

Just downloaded to update my version, but can't run it because Norton antivirus detects a thread and deletes it immediately. The threat is identified as 'Suspicious.Cloud.7.EP'.
Not sure if this is a false positive, but don't want to take a chance on it. Please verify the software, clean it if necessary and update the download link (or post a note). Txs.

OK! Issue solved! I had knowingly installed the iSafe Key-logger on that computer. This is supposedly invisible to cleaners and registry. AdwCleaner removed the invisible iSafe folder but not its registry entries. That caused instability in the system, probably related to the specificity of the key-loggers. Restoring the iSafe folder from within the AdwCleaner Quarantine Manager solved the issue. No need to do anything in the registry. I hope this helps!

Merci beaucoup, ce truc est sur et efficace, je l'utilise quand je m'apercoit que j'ai des pubs qui ne devraient pas exister (j'utilise adblock) et il les suprime a tout les coups! certains logiciels sur lesquels j'avait quelque doutes ont été suprimés aussi^^ c'est un bon outil

Anyone could help in rolling back what AdwCleaner did to my registry, please? See the issues described below! Adwcleaner reports can be seen at http://1drv.ms/16uCsum. Thanks!

I find many legitimate items flagged by AdwCleaner. Blindly clicking on Clean (now Cleaning???) is asking for trouble.

Hola, Hotspot Shield, YTD YouTube Downloader, AVG LinkScanner, etc. are not adware. They should not be deleted by AdwCleaner.

False positives (it's a legitimate VPN extension):
C:\Users\User\AppData\Local\Hola
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Google\Chrome\Extensions\ncffjdbbodifgldkcbhmiiljfcbgjag

If I remember correctly there's also a false positive for the Hola Unblocker Firefox add-on. However, the Firefox add-on stopped working for me - possibly due to AdwCleaner cleaning away files needed for it to work - and re-installing it doesn't help, so I can't submit a report for that add-on. The add-on can be installed from here if anyone wants to have a look at it: http://hola.org/

The following entries are false positives:

C:\Documents and Settings\User\Application Data\ProgSense (included with some software to look for updates - nothing malicious or deceiving)


C:\Documents and Settings\User\Application Data\Simple Adblock (adblocker now known as Adblock Plus knowingly installed by user for Internet Explorer)

C:\Documents and Settings\User\Local Settings\Application Data\Hola (knowingly installed by user)

HKCU\Software\ProgSense (included with some software to look for updates - nothing malicious or deceiving)

HKLM\SOFTWARE\Classes\CLSID\{459DD0F7-0D55-D3DC-67BC-E6BE37E9D762} (belongs to ZoomBrowser EX, a Canon camera utility)

The following are proxy settings knowingly added by user:

HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings [ProxyEnable] - 1

HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings [ProxyOverride] - *.local

HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings [ProxyServer] - socks=localhost:1234


Thanks in advance for correcting the issue.

Merci pour ce logiciel miracle. Il a déjà débloqué des situations désespérées chez des personnes (amis, famille) que j'ai dépannées.

Une question: la dernière version (adwcleaner_4.110) signale "Everything", logiciel de recherche hyper-efficace et absolument indispensable que j'utilise en permanence depuis longtemps, comme élément à supprimer.
Pourquoi donc ?
