To some of the other users out there who think this software is a virus, listen up. Any piece of software that performs administrative tasks with or without the user knowledge is considered malware or a trojan. Unfortunately, this is also common for software with a good cause.
the correct path is:
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Windows Genuine Advantage

I have tried to download this several times with the same result as everyone else, Norton Internet Security is treating this programme as a trojan and deletes it. I have been on the NIS website forums and people there are quoting that the programme is safe to use and providing website links for download, both the BleepingComputer and Xplode links yet is still being blocked by NIS, any ideas if there is another programme available...?
Also cannot download as Norton blocks and removes it. Here is copy of Norton details:

Bonsoir,
à toutes fins utiles, Norton antivirus efface AdwCleaner v3.308 sans autre forme de procès, il peut être utile de prévenir Norton de ce faux positif... cordialement. M.L.
