This element seems to be a FP caused by a generic detection.  

Sorry, but I don't think so.

There are  - only at the german TB forum - at least 50 topics with this ff profilename "41A66E7E5EE1".

Usually, every ff profilename is almost unique, 41A66E7E5EE1 isn't unique.

Firefox pref Found - what does this option do and why is it considered malicious?

Hi all.

I googled before asking but never found anything relevant... So AdwCleaner found 1 threat, this is what is says:

Firefox pref Found:  [E:\Profiles\Firefox\prefs.js] - "extensions.quick_start.sd.closeWindowWithLastTab_prev_state" -  false

Anyone knows what this config option does and why is it dangerous?

Thanks.

Hello,

Sorry I was unclear. You can deselect the element "C:\Users\Admin\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\41A66E7E5EE1" from the "Folders", and do a clean.

This element seems to be a FP caused by a generic detection.

Thse issuses are in the log every time I do a scan. Either AdwCleaner does not remove them, or I still have some residual malware which puts it back.
