Not responding when scanning web browsers.I have to kill process in Task Manager. I don't know if it is connected,
but recently I updated Avast. Windows 7 x86
McAfee seems to have a problem with the newest update. It quarantines the exe file. Please see this thread:
https://community.mcafee.com/thread/78134
Just downloaded to update my version, but can't run it because Norton antivirus detects a thread and deletes it immediately. The threat is identified as 'Suspicious.Cloud.7.EP'.
Not sure if this is a false positive, but don't want to take a chance on it. Please verify the software, clean it if necessary and update the download link (or post a note). Txs.
The following entries are false positives:
C:\Documents and Settings\User\Application Data\ProgSense (included with some software to look for updates - nothing malicious or deceiving)
C:\Documents and Settings\User\Application Data\Simple Adblock (adblocker now known as Adblock Plus knowingly installed by user for Internet Explorer)
C:\Documents and Settings\User\Local Settings\Application Data\Hola (knowingly installed by user)
HKCU\Software\ProgSense (included with some software to look for updates - nothing malicious or deceiving)
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Classes\CLSID\{459DD0F7-0D55-D3DC-67BC-E6BE37E9D762} (belongs to ZoomBrowser EX, a Canon camera utility)
The following are proxy settings knowingly added by user:
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings [ProxyEnable] - 1
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings [ProxyOverride] - *.local
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings [ProxyServer] - socks=localhost:1234
Thanks in advance for correcting the issue.
latest update says it is not compatible with my operating system... windows 8.1 :/
before it was my favorite though.
Bonjour,
Les 2 dernières versions suppriment l'historique de "Windows Update".....
Pour être certaine de ce que j’affirme, j'ai fait 2 fois un restaure système. Sur ma restauration il y a des dates avec des mises à jours et après avoir utiliser "AdwCleaner", il n'y a plus aucune dates disponibles. Le seul moyen de les consulter est de passer par le "Programmes et fonctionnalités".
Je suis avec Windows 7 pro 64....
Bonne journée
Edelweiss
My adwcleaner failed to remove Vosteran Search which pops up 3 tabs for every one chrome tab. I haven't downloaded any private or personal files on this new computer.....only windows and McAfee updates have been entered. McAfee sent me to adwcleaner. Interesting but also not successful. Help.
Hello,
Everytime when I do a Scan, I get this thing:
***** [ Taken ] *****
Taak Gevonden : Dealply
Taak Gevonden : DealPlyUpdate
Taak Gevonden : Express FilesUpdate
Taak Gevonden : globalUpdateUpdateTaskMachineCore
Taak Gevonden : globalUpdateUpdateTaskMachineUA
Taak Gevonden : Searchya
I never get ride of it, it always return.
What do I have to do to get ride of it?
Please help!!!!
@tonypl6 : It was a "small" bug in the database. It has been fixed yesterday with the database update.
Sorry for the desagrement,
Thank you for creating and continuing to update AdwCleaner. My 68 year old neighbor called me asking for help removing what turned out to be "Ads by CheckMeUp". Your software worked perfectly, and even found and resolved another issue as well. I am going to donate to help you continue your efforts. It's not a lot, but i hope everyone you help is able to donate something...thanks again!
