Hey team,
AdwCleaner has been a great tool to use to clean malware, however, because it isn't signed, our new AV likes to quarantine it due to some abnormal behavior at the code level.
We can't just whitelist the file because an update is pushed like every week or so, changing the hash.
Will you sign your code soon so we can continue to use the software?
Thanks in advance!
Hello,
Can you download and execute https://toolslib.net/downloads/viewdownload/205-winsockanalyzer/
You'll get a logfile beginning by "Winsock" in C:\, please share it here (by copy/pasting it or by hosting it on U2S and sharing the generated link here).
Best regards,
Hello,
It's the same "problem" than here - the latest database includes the fix, so you'll need to update it. It should be automatic when you click on [Scan]. Otherwise, please uninstall/reinstall AdwCleaner (by launching it -> "Uninstall") from there : https://toolslib.net/downloads/viewdownload/1-adwcleaner/

Yes, it's a Dell. See the header of the scan file below (i did not post the entire file since it is quite long). Let me know if you need any additional information.

Hello,
Sorry for the delay.
You have a Dell computer, don't you ? It may be a corner case with some Dell processes and AdwCleaner..
In the meantime, to be sure that you get the latest database version, can you copy/paste here the content of AdwCleaner scanning logfile (from C:\AdwCleaner\) ?
Best regards,
OK,
I finally got to download and run it V5.112 and no BSOD, so thank you for looking into it and fixing it for me.

Great ! I reproduced the problem. It's due to Rox Player, which is really tendancious (showings random ads, not updated for a quite long time...).
I added the detections to AdwCleaner, and we'll remove it manually there.
Download the file fixlist.txt and save it as "fixlist.txt" to the Desktop or where FRST is located.
NOTE. It's important that both files, FRST/FRST64 and fixlist.txt...
OK Here it is:
