I noticed AdwCleaner is detecting 'Adobe Flash Player Updater' under Scheduled Tasks. This is a legitimate Adobe Flash Updater task and should be fixed.

@Nyssa
I had the same problem several weeks ago. It was fixed by updating Firefox.
This is the best software I have ever used! Thank you so much! It fixed everything! My browser was corrupted and my computer had an ad software virus and you fixed that too. So many thanks to all of you for your great program!
I wonder if there's more distinct Changelog about what got fixed, specially with false positives!
Previous version crippled me with Chrome where it tought that the ScriptBlock addon was a threat.
@tonypl6 : It was a "small" bug in the database. It has been fixed yesterday with the database update.
Sorry for the desagrement,
Bonne année à tous les geeks du monde entier et tous les bénévoles !
Je viens vers vous avec un problème de fenêtres intempestives qui s'ouvraient et que j'avais résolu avec AdwCleaner version 4.105. Le problème est réapparu le jour de l'an (!!) est n'est pas résolu avec la nouvelle version 4.106. Je ne sais plus quoi faire. Configuration : PC Windows 7, FireFox et Bit Defender.
Merci pour tous les commentaires qui pourraient m'aider.
ll est encore temps pour les bonnes résolutions ;-))
For those complaining about XP compatibility, I'm a XP Pro user and I can confirm AdwCleaner is fully compatible with XP. Like everybody though, I have had trouble with version 4, but it has been fixed. The latest 4.103, however, shows a little progress bar for loading the database right before opening the program. It also takes a little too long for the scan to run. Other than that, it works.
By the way, why aren't we getting prompted to install the latest version anymore?
And, I really miss when the program would update without having to download a new .exe file.
vers 4.101 STILL INCOMPATIBLE WITH XP
..THE BUG continues...still NOT FIXED YET
