AdwCleaner v5.025 can`t remove 2 records:
[C:\Users\Max\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default\Web Data] [Search Provider] s3-tool.en.softonic.com

Hello Xplode,
The ADWCleaner utility is removing my filtering extension for my antivirus (Webroot).
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\CLSID\{C9C42510-9B41-42c1-9DCD-7282A2D07C61}
Thank you,
Kirby
I believe this is a false positive detection and it is related to Toolbar Buttons add-on.

I'm using Win 10 and I tried to scan with this new version of Adwcleaner but it keeps stopping working during web browser scan.
Possible solution on win xp sp3. Rename Adwcleaner_5.021.exe to Adwcleaner.exe. This may also work on versions 18 and up. It may have to do with Avira safe search interfering with it. Once I removed Avira safe search from registry (IE browser entries) using adwcleaner.exe it would then run adwcleaner_5.021.exe.
Hope this works for you. May be worth trying on other OS versions.
Great antispyware cleaning application!! Saved the day with the initial state of all browsers.. Great Work.
I only joined her to voice my opinion about AdwCleaner. I was sent to this site saying it will help remove bad extension i had in chrome browser. well let me tell you it found none but it went on to remove other perfectly good programs i had that had nothing to do with chrome. Some are some i used for years and can not download again. Thanks AdwCleaner.... for nothing! My recommendations to everyone.. DO NOT USE!! unless you want to lose more then you wanted too. Thank you.
TNTCrypter 1.5.0.0 is now available!
More optimized than ever!
Thanks for the support!
I am currently developing two new big features for the application.
Stay tuned for more!

I haven't been able to update since 4.1 because it hangs up all three of my computers during cleaning, forcing me to do a hard shutdown. All my browsers have been updated; I'm using Windows 10; it's three different computers; yet the problem still continues with 5.009.
