I would like to personally thank you guys, I have had a nasty piece of adware on my pc for a long time, and I had finally snapped! I couldn't find any help online, then someone discreetly commented adwcleaner! I could not believe this didn't come up anywhere else and it instantly solved my problem! Thanks alot.
BTW - The adware was called DNS.Keeper. Brutal stuff!
I used Adwcleaner last night, it finally got rid of something nasty in my firefox browser. I'd run 2 tools from Microsoft that came back saying that everything was clean. I'd also tried other anti-spyware tools that the internet said could delete my problem, but after hours of scanning my disk they did nothing. Adwcleaner took less time and actually worked. Bravo!
Kleiner Verbesserungsvorschlag, da Laien selbst mit der simplen UI von AdwCleaner überfordert zu sein scheinen:
Statt "Löschen" evtl. "Funde löschen" und statt Deinstallieren" besser "AdwCleaner deinstallieren" als Beschriftung verwenden, da viele offenbar nach dem Suchlauf auf "Deinstallieren" klicken, weil sie glauben, damit wäre das Deinstallieren der Adware gemeint.
im using this software to my hearts content, however, my father has recently got the 'ad by jak' adware on his computer, and it seems that adwcleaner cant remove it. could you update it so it can also remove 'ad by jak'? thank you.
Amazing software, Xplode!
I would like to point out a few things I noticed with AdwCleaner:
SereneScreen is a screensaver software, not malware. Ad-Aware is an anti-adware program, but AdwCleaner keeps detecting it. Also, could you please give us a way to add certain detections to a permanent ignore /excluded list?
I know sometimes software ends up being detected as PUP, therefore an exclusion list should solve any issues with it!
I also want to point out that sometimes, AdwCleaner seems unable to start - sometimes due to an infection, sometimes seemingly without a real reason. It updates and then fails to start.
Keep up the awesome work you're doing!
Xplode, thank you for a great tool. Recently I came across a malware auto-reinstaller that AdwCleaner v4.205 does not detect. I completely removed it using Malwarebytes Anti-Malware program.
Log files (and any other data ) available upon request.
Here are the details:
AdwCleaner removed all malware, but it would reinstall after about 5 minutes. I do not know which was the undetected culprit, but here is a list of everything Malwarebytes removed:

Bonsoir,
J'aimerais savoir s'il y a vraiment un problème avec l'antivirus chinois Qihoo 360 vu wue Adwcleaner veut me supprimer des entrées Tencent. Du coup j'ai désinstallé cet Antivirus ...

Hello the Team,
It's the first times I download "ADWCLEANER" and it's incompatible with my anti-virus, "AVG Pro". There are pretty much 3 years, I use the "adwcleaner" and now with the version V4.203, it doesn't work well. My anti-virus detected it like a virus for my computer. Is it right? Please let me know your result.
But in any case, now, each times I downloaded it, I can register it on the PC. WEIRD!!!
