I downloaded Adwcleaner today from CNET
I got a warning it was out of date, and was directed to a link for the current version
I downloaded the new Adwcleaner and when I tried installing it,
"Avast Antivirus" gave me this warning:
https://toolslib.net/downloads/finish/1/get/aZ8f/
Infection: Win32:Malware-gen
The file was quarantined:
File Name: dwNRRc3h.exe.part
Virus Description: Win32:Malware-gen
Help!!!
Thanks,

Bonjour,
La version v4.106 n'a pas corrigé le problème d'effacement de Google toolbar tout comme la précédente et la version 3.201.
Décochez toutes les corrections de registre se terminant par ....CD4F}
Pour Edelweiss, faites comme moi, sauvegardez toujours les anciennes version avant d'installer la nouvelle.
Réparez avec:

Pour la deuxième fois et cette fois avec la version v4.105 ma barre d'outil Google est supprimée.
Obligé de la rétablir avec

Adwcleaner is now picking up registry key entries (not folders or files) of Internet Download Manager. A legitimate downloading software that did not use to be picked up in previous versions of Adwcleaner. Please white-list Internet Download Manager.
Finally, with version 4.104, I get prompted to download the latest version, which has not been working since versions 4 and up have been released. Now updated to version 4.105.
Thank you. Keep up the good work!
my adw cleaner said it was out of date so i downloaded a newer version but problems occurred and my anti virus blocked it as it was seen as a threat to my computer i was really impressed with this tool now i am unable to use it hope you can give me some feedback as how i can remedy this problem so i may go on using your product
Norton malware indicate the time of download
QuickDiag v1.12.02.1 download page does not show up in English, only French.
Adwcleaner is detecting speedbit video downloader as a malware. This makes it difficult in cleaning other malwares as some of the links might be related to speedbit video downloader. could you check this link and solve the problem (https://forums.malwarebytes.org/index.php?/topic/54048-malwarebytes-anti-malware-version-146-erroneously-detects-speedbit-speedbit-video-downloader-as-adwareecobar/). Thank you
For those complaining about XP compatibility, I'm a XP Pro user and I can confirm AdwCleaner is fully compatible with XP. Like everybody though, I have had trouble with version 4, but it has been fixed. The latest 4.103, however, shows a little progress bar for loading the database right before opening the program. It also takes a little too long for the scan to run. Other than that, it works.
By the way, why aren't we getting prompted to install the latest version anymore?
And, I really miss when the program would update without having to download a new .exe file.
