Re: Can I remove these folders/keys safely with adware cleaner?

The results of last scan:

***** [ Tasks ] *****

PUP.Adware.Heuristic, At1

PUP.Adware.Heuristic, At1

What exactly does this mean, and is this a real threat? (because the updated interface is too confusing for me). Thank you in advance.

Firstly, make sure you cleaned up your Adware fully, otherwise, the problem might still persist. Newest updated of AdwCleaner shouldn't have this issue. Try doing a full reinstall of the software and see if that helps!

Re: Version 7 FPs (262 elements)

I have no proxies on either machine.

Just updated and ran scan - still same result as yesterday as below - 280 entires found!

The Chrome entries found are simply my personalisations for the Chrome start up page! Should definately not be selected or cleaned!

AdwCleaner not responding at post actions

Accidentally installed adware on my computer. It did things like turning malwarebytes into a untrusted publisher. Fixed that but now AdwCleaner stops responding once it reaches post actions.

Re: Version 7 FPs (262 elements)

Unfortunately still not fixed here in Australia. Still finding many entries by Spyware Blaster. After I ran Adwcleaner 7 I checked with Spyware Blaster and it reported many items without protection. Then AdwCleaner wanted to remove them again.  Previous Adwcleaner finds nothing.  

Why hasnt it been fixed for us over here?

Hello,

The quarantine is in C:\AdwCleaner, but its format is different than how the v6 handled it, and the folders you mentionned above are related to the v6. It's not an issue, both can coexist.

It's possible that the detected elements have not been quarantined because they weren't considered as "dangerous" if being removed.

Regards,
