Hi Cumdacon,
Logs look good, it made a repair. Have you rebooted your machine since yesterday? If so, what happened?
I see you have a Dell. You are also running Windows 6.0? The scan /scannow is in a different language? What did the last line say?
Please reply.

well it pays and they are not annoying at all to me - i always do surveys if im bored/close to going offline anyhow so i just do the survey,restart my pc via your adwcleaner and boom,i dont even really see that they are there (i only use this site rarely so i dont mind)

Just my opinion. ????

Hope this helps.

Hello Sakurasanta 86,
I had this same question yesterday from another user. I would delete the above through adw cleaner. My advice do not take surveys. Also look here at the same question https://toolslib.net/forum/viewthread/14338-pups-online-studies-harmless-or-not/
Hope this helps.

Hello ive started using some online sites for studys the last days - file some stuff and get money/points etc BUT everytime i do a survey on "https://www.meinungsstudie.de/" it loads the sites on a url named "surveymyopinion" So if i run adwcleaner (current version) after doing that i get 4-8 PUP'S which all have entries verifying it is from "surveymyopinion" in some folders. Now the question: ...
i didnt download anything. they just appear everytime i do a survey on the site above
They are not serious but they are annoying! Just be careful what you download and make sure to pay attention to what is checked marked that shouldn't be. PUA's do not track you, etc and are not ad related.
Hope this helps.

I have removed them and i know everything about the site. I just wanted to know if they are rather serious or just ad related. I remove them at the end of my day when i turn of my pc anyhow so i just wanted to be save in case they do something rather fishy (track keystrokes for example.)
Hello Fleks,
I see you have a PUP issue(s). Did you delete the PUP's with Adware Cleaner after you ran the scan? I don't know where you are located but did you know this study website is in Germany?
PUA. (Potentially Unwanted Application) or PUP (Potentially Unwanted Program) These are very annoying at best in that they cause pop-us, redirect your browser home page, and other behavior that...
