It's true I haven't restarted the PC since this whole thing started. Plus while I have IE installed I don't actually use it, not even browser helper objects or anything like that. Though I don't know if that counts for anything.
Hello, firstly, thanks for this amazing tool
I can't see the Quarantine items (file(s)/folder(s)/registry etc..)

Hello,
It's not a browser hijack, it's the search-engine setting that AdwCleaner set after removing a malicious one. This will be back to google.com by default, with a dropdown in the Options UI to choose between seevral search engines.
