Cleaning malware with AdwCleaner in an Windows 7 of a friend AdwCleaner didn't delete some tasks named "Rocket Updater" and "APSnotifier...". Everything else was deleted. What to do?
Thank you very much for an answer.
I downloaded adwcleaner_4.101.exe and ran virustotal.com on it. 55 scanners were ran and 2 of them detected a virus:
Jiangmin TrojanDropper.FrauDrop.uic
TrendMicro-HouseCall Suspicious_GEN.F47V1113
I'm not sure if I should go ahead and install it.....
This tool helped me get rid of the "Ads by Speed Dial" in Chrome. I was becoming desperate because no tool could get rid of it, Malwarebytes, Spybot, none. manual removal process described on various websites could not be replicated. I was really becoming desperate, I uninstalled and reinstalled Chrome, to no avail. I came across one article on a German website, and a poster recommended this tool. I gave it a try and it really worked!!! I am now free of "Ads by Speed Dial". THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR THIS WONDERFUL TOOL!!!
When I used this before via remote sessions on logmein, I would run it and everything went fine. Lately however I noticed that after the cleanup at the end it cuts me off from the internet connection with the remote computer. The remote user now has to press "ok" twice and then their pc reboots then I'm connected again, and it didn't do that before. Can you update this to go back to how it was please?
@Ipuri - I'm using AdwCleaner v3.216 and I haven't encounter disconnecting issue with LMI(logmein rescue). But when I use the updated one which is AdwCleaner v4.101, when I click on "clean" the LMI will lose it's connection.
@admin please give me feedback on this. thank you!

After I run the download and scan I get all these boxes with check marks. The sentence at the top tells me to uncheck any I don't want deleted. I fact, they are important files and I do not want to delete them. I just wanted to clean them. Do I uncheck all then proceed or? Thanks. JR
Bonjour,
A tout ceux qui ont le message "Database corrupted" , sachez que je suis en ce moment en train de bosser dessus :-)
Bonjour
J'utilise Adwcleaner depuis longtemps et je n'ai jamais eu de problème.
Mais aujourd'hui je n'arrive plus à installer la dernière version 4.100 il me donne une erreur :
SQLite Error "Database corrupted, please uninstall Adwcleaner and download a fresh copy."
Que dois-je faire ?
Merci

Seriously, XP People!
I think it might be a WELL KNOWN FACT that XP was retired on April 8th 2014.
No support from MS = GAPING HOLES for hackers.
Any one still using it while connected to the internet is a blubbering idiotic FOOL !!
It's like going to War with a pen knife...
Personally, with version 4.0.0.2 - I have not had any issues using it on Vista, W7, W8.0, W8.1
