For some reason after the last update it's detecting 2 Registry entries and one of them is related to Windows Defender, so I suppose it is a false positive.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH for providing one of the most effective anti-malware tools in the world.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH for continuing to support Windows XP. Without AdWare,
I could not safely use the Internet with XP...since so many 'paid' anti-malware software stopped supporting XP.
If you had a Donate Now button, I would click it immediately.
I've run this software on even very heavily infected systems and its amazing how quickly and effective AdwCleaner removes even the worst adware. Even adware that could not be removed with other software got cleaned by this.
Dog shit ripoff software. installs all sorts of horseshit on your system. Avoid at all costs.
REPEAT DO NOT USE THIS SOFTWARE.
This software is godlish. Even AVG or other antiviruses couldn't find that what ADWCleaner found. And im not getting anymore random shutdowns and my computer is not so laggy.
adwcleaner is a great software and it works! But from time to time I encounter a severe problem: adwcleaner says “adwcleaner_5.027.exe (or _5.030) has encounted a problem and needs to close”. And the file adwcleaner_x.xxx.exe disappears from its location!! When opened from ERD commander, it says “can't load SQLite3.dll, although that SQLite3.dll resides in WINDOWS directory!
Xplode, thanks for this software. Wish I could buy you a beer
There are a few ads inserted into the machine where you run the software still can not redirect website all phenomenon of some adware
