Here are most of the entries I could find. I believe the Hotspot Shield drivers might be the culprit. One user had a driver inside Device Manager. Replacing that driver with one from another working computer seems to have corrected the connection issue.

This tool helped me get rid of the "Ads by Speed Dial" in Chrome. I was becoming desperate because no tool could get rid of it, Malwarebytes, Spybot, none. manual removal process described on various websites could not be replicated. I was really becoming desperate, I uninstalled and reinstalled Chrome, to no avail. I came across one article on a German website, and a poster recommended this tool. I gave it a try and it really worked!!! I am now free of "Ads by Speed Dial". THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR THIS WONDERFUL TOOL!!!

Bonsoir,
J'ai refait l'analyse de la version 4.002 et même résultat.
Je n'ose pas mettre ici toutes les lignes au risque de monopoliser la page, je vais donc les mettre sur le message suivant, au besoin vous pourrez supprimer le message s'il est trop long.
Je veux juste savoir si je peux supprimer le tout sans problème.
Ou alors j'attends la mise à jour.

Bonjour,
J'ai toujours utilisé AdwCleaner en toute confiance, mais là, avec la version 4.002 j'ai un peu peur, d'autant qu'on ne peut pas réintégrer les suppressions en cas d'erreur.
La version 4.001 ne me trouvait rien, comme souvent, mais là j'ai une tonne de lignes trouvées dans Firefox et mes compétences informatiques ne me permettent pas de juger de la pertinence des résultats.
Entre la version 4.001 et 4.002 je n'ai pourtant rien fait de particulier, si ce n'est qu'après avoir fait l'analyse de tous les fichiers de mon profil Firefox par Virus Total, j'avais installé leur module complémentaire VTzilla complètement inutile et qui installe en plus une toolbar.

J'ai fait l'analyse de Adwcleaner 4.002 pendant l'analyse de Malwarebytes Anti-Malware qui est très longue et qui n'était pas tout à fait terminée.
Le problème viendrait-il de là ?
Par acquis de conscience, je vais refaire l'analyse tout programmes fermés et je reviendrai poster le rapport.
Merci

Are there any restrictions on the use of this software? I am looking for a free antivirus software for my company and was wondering if you had any licensing issues regarding this. Also, is there any restriction on free distribution of this software? We would be looking to place this software on a share drive and having users download it from there when needed.
