@Yotony: Norton thinks that everything is a virus. I wouldn't give that detection one shred of credibility.
Just downloaded to update my version, but can't run it because Norton antivirus detects a thread and deletes it immediately. The threat is identified as 'Suspicious.Cloud.7.EP'.
Not sure if this is a false positive, but don't want to take a chance on it. Please verify the software, clean it if necessary and update the download link (or post a note). Txs.
New version of Adwcleaner (4.1.10) is being recognized as false positive by Avast Antivirus! Win32: Evo-gen [Susp]
Bonjour
Pour la 1è fois, j'ai un souci avec le téléchargement de ADWCleaner
BitDefender me signale une infection au moment du téléchargement
Virus Gen:Variant.Graftor.171167
Je dis bien 'au moment du téléchargement', parce que, une fois nettoyé, il semble ne plus y aoir de problème.
For People Who Think Everything Anti-Virus/Anti-Malware is really virus..
Wake up Pls..There are a lot of False Positives..This is one of them..If u Look on youtube for Adwcleaner There are a lot of videos teaching how to use it..Showing this specific website to download.
@merida72 It's a false positive. AdwCleaner do not come with viruses.
@keepon You can uninstall AdwCleaner thanks to his uninstall button available from his interface (just launch AdwCleaner, you'll see it).
@tonypl6 Thank you!

Bonjour,
Ajoutez Adwcleaner dans les exceptions de votre antivirus et il ne sera plus bloqué
The only virus here is the "behind the keyboard device". It's not a virus, don't believe people who even don't really realize what is a definition/signature. This saved me tons of work. Keep the good job.
