Re: My First Post: Are These Internet Explorer\ActiveX Compatibility Entries False Positives

I just installed version 7.0.2.1 which is newest release of Adwcleaner. I ran a scan and it came back clean. None of the previously detected Internet Explorer\ActiveX Compatibility registry entries were detected by the scan...  Happy Days!!!

Thank you for fixing the problem...

Is anyone from the AdwCleaner team able to comment about this yet?

It would be nice wouldn't it? I am solving this myself, by uninstalling AdwCleaner and not recommending it to those requesting help on a forum where I am a mod. Too bad, very good tool, one of the best for removing PUP's but not going to sacrifice SpywareBlaster's ability to block them so ...

hello before using the tool it's good to read the informations and indications about it.

did you turn off your protections that could block the tool ?

it's possible to recover the files or registry keys in the options and selecting what you want to restore

What do you call 'good files deleted' ? windows' crack or something like this ? ^^ or a crapware or unwanted program ?

Regards

Greetings. Please do paste the log. Also, weird reaction, it shouldn't take 4 hours for 50%. It could have been malware trying to prevent further execution of the software, had that happen before. And I am not sure if there is a way to recover your files, official representatives should comment on this matter.

Interesting development. Thanks for the logs, as expected they are clean. Successful removal could indicate that Adwcleaner stopped the threat further or was a false positive. Honestly, everything related to Yahoo is a massive security hole for me, and I would avoid it as much as possible. 

Upon further investigation, this looks like malware's registry file that wasn't removed correctly, but t...

General Question about AdsFix

dans AdsFix par FireNoodle

Hi there, 

I just have some questions about your program. 

1: Does AdsFix have a pause button? During the analyzing sequence it took over 4 hours to scan (and that was at 57%), I didn't expect it to go for so long. 

2: When I pressed escape on the keyboard; when it was analyzing, the computer froze up and windows was seizing. Followed by a frozen screen and I had to hard reset the computer. ...
