Tracing key keeps coming back after deletion, help?

dans AdwCleaner par doki

I am bad at this kind of stuff, so apologies if I am missing something obvious.

Today in a scan a "tracing key" is detected after a scan with adwcleaner, deleted it and right after restart I scanned again. Same key was detected again. Malwarebytes scan didn't detect anything. After 2 more deletions with adwcleaner I thought I would ask here for help since it still keeps popping up in adwcleane...

Advise please

Following the discovery of b3-uk mookie1.com, I scanned with AdwCleaner. Please see Logfile. Can you advise me if any of the findings should be removed?

Hello Xplode,

I confirm this Registry Key is not detected anymore by updated database.

Thanks again for having fixed this FP so quickly, and for the explanations regarding x64 Registry paths.

Regards,

Sardion.

Ah bon ?

En quoi cette (52e) ligne est-elle malveillante ? Faux positif ? Merci d'avance.

Hello,

Actually, the path is correct since if a key is found in x64 registry, there will be "[x64]" as a prefix in the path.

This FP should be fixed now, I removed it from the database.

Hello,

would it be possible, if an ADW update is available, to be forwarded to a secure page "https://toolslib.net/downloads/finish/1/" instead of a unsecure page "http://toolslib.net/downloads/finish/1/"?

Thanks

Michael
