Suggestion: Add an "ignore AOL" option

dans AdwCleaner par HaoleBoy

I use AdwCleaner on a lot of home computers, and they invariably are using AOL. AdwCleaner seems to think the AOL toolbar is malicious along with a bunch of registry entries pertaining to AOL. Perhaps I'm wrong, but I don't think this is true. I'd like to request that you add an option to ignore AOL so that the install of AOL does not get corrupted by deleting parts of it.

 

Thank You!

Once I removed Avira safe search from registry (IE browser entries) using adwcleaner.exe it would then run adwcleaner_5.021....
