There's still a localisation-problem in german language:
Tools → Quarantänemananger
It must be "Quarantänemanager"! Delete only ONE "N" please.
Everyone is having trouble with 3.303. Me too. I'm sure they will fix this excellent software soon.
I couldn't believe how hard it was to find the previous version. Maybe I missed the easy button somewhere. I did find it and I'm mirroring it on my website. You can use my mirror to get 3.302 at http://isurf2.com/adw
Please, I need your help. After scanning my system with your product, I detected the following (from the report)

After the scan, Under Chrome found an Extension unknown.(see above)
Selected "Clean" - Program ran for a little then a message appeared:
Aut2Exe has stopped working.
A problem caused the program to stop working correctly.
Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available.
The faulty chrome Extension was not removed. My system is now unstable and had several dumps (blue screen). Avast, ESET, Malwarebytes and other reported nothing, only AdwCleaner.
Again, my system is now unstable, AdwCleaner is detecting that Chrome Extension but does abort before removing it. Any idea of what the problem is.
Please, contact me at padi5star@gmail.com if you have a solution. I will be away from my computer for 10 days, but I can receive emails.
Thank you.
New version 3.303 as of Aug. 8th at 6:20am EST stops working during the "clean" operation.
Here is the error message that occurs during the broswer cleanup. It appears to be happening right before Firefox cleanup.

I was also having the same problem with the latest version (v3.303) crashing. I'm running Win 7 64bit. I took aniceguy10's advice below and downloaded the older version (v3.302) from AfterDawn, and that one now works flawlessly.
The latest version of Adwcleaner is crashing everytime we run it and it is happening on all computers. Please fix and update the new version.
Go to http://www.afterdawn.com/ and in the search bar type "AdwCleaner v3.302". After it down loads, then run it. If it says a new version is available, PRESS CANCEL button. That way it will not remove itself from your folder.
