I have found that a reading of AdwCleaner[0] gives a better result than many other settings. The AdwCleaner *Quarantined* items are showing in other Antivirus scans at times. For this reason when helping others I ask them to Uninstall their version and install a Fresh copy after about 3 scans. Is this useless, or can this be a good idea ??
False alarm:
C:\Users\User\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default\Extensions\fhkmpddbiciimgibbkmimhfognpknmeo
It is absolutely legal extension of the store

C:\Users\User\AppData\Local\Mail.Ru
In this folder, I have installed "Cloud Mail.ru", it need not be removed, it is completely legal and no it does not apply to advertising
https://cloud.mail.ru/
C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Mail.Ru
And in that folder I have is a shortcut to the legal application "Cloud Mail.ru"

Merci beaucoup...uniquement la chose que m'a sauve! Vista (service pack 2.)..works great...more and more us Brits are having to look to France for opensource software that actually does what we need it to do. Thankyou again and keep me posted me when you have any more gismos that can sniff out the bad boys on my poor little machine.
Vive!
