TESTIMONIAL For AdwCleaner -- World's Best Free Cleaner for Treacherous Malware
I discovered AdwCleaner at the Malwarebytes forums. It is one of the primary tools used by the AV experts there.
I used AdwCleaner for several years whenever I believe my active PAID AV protection failed to detect a threat.
AdwCleaner saved my PC SEVERAL times from Virus Hell!
THANK YOU EVER SO MUCH FOR AdwCleaner, Mr. Xplode.
(WARNING for Novice Users: Unless you are very knowledgeable about the Windows Registry, think twice about using AdwCleaner to delete potentially infected registry keys. If AdwCleaner says you have infected registry keys, go to the Malwarebytes forum and ask for a second opinion from an expert before messing with your Windows Registry.)
URGENT -- Attn: AdWare Developer -- MAJOR Bug Report for v5.019
I just downloaded and attempted to run the current version...but AdWare fails to run and crashes before opening.
Here is what happens:
1. Open File window opens after clicking on the .exe file.
2. Clicking Run on Open File window results in a window opening with an error message.
3. The error message simply states AdWare Cleaner encountered an unknown problem, etc. The error window offers a Debug button. I simply closed it out.
4. I ran version 4.2xx. It opened and worked fine.
NEXT ISSUE: v4.2xx identified about 11 registry keys as a threat. After manually locating each registry key, all registry key were associated with variations of "Download.SwInstaller" and "NCTAudioFile2.DLL". Extensive Google searching didn't uncover any meaningful info about the nature of those two 'things'. So, I didn't let Adware delete them. DO YOU KNOW WHY ADWARE PEGGED THOSE REGISTRY KEYS AS THREATS?
*** Sir Xplode, I wish to profusely thank you for sharing Adware with the world. Your Adware saved my PC more than once over the years. Bless you!
Curious and frustrated that ONLY HitmanPro finds registry remnants of the YahooToolbar, CouponBar, and Default Tab !
Of the YahooToobar 11 different registery remnants were found and of the Default Tab 5 were found.
AdwCleaner, Spybot, etc could not find these registry keys
Como interpretar en el menu de inicio ACTIVATE UAC - Create registry backup- reset system setting para saber si los puedo utilizar o no. Gracias por su ayuda en DELFIX
Bonsoir,
Cette version 4.201 est en anglais.
J'ai viré le moteur de recherche Ixquick et Yahoo
Pour le reste, mêmes résultats et je ne sais pas si je peux supprimer
J'aimerais avoir votre avis et savoir éventuellement d'où pourrait venir ces services.

Bonjour,
J'ai un bug avec ADWCleaner, a chaque fois que j'analyse mon ordinateur il me trouve les deux choses suivantes :
"HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\LowRegistry\DOMStorage\chatango.com"
"HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\LowRegistry\DOMStorage\st.chatango.com"
Or, a chaque fois je clique sur nettoyer et il me dit bien que ces deux clés ont été supprimer après le redémarrage de mon ordinateur.
