@rickghouse: I had the exact same error & avast blocked downloading this file from this site!
But having used this app in the past, I clicked on the "External Link" button (under the 'Download' button near top / right of this page, and tried downloading this from bleepingcomputer.com . . . success!! Hope this helps.
I downloaded Adwcleaner today from CNET
I got a warning it was out of date, and was directed to a link for the current version
I downloaded the new Adwcleaner and when I tried installing it,
"Avast Antivirus" gave me this warning:
https://toolslib.net/downloads/finish/1/get/aZ8f/
Infection: Win32:Malware-gen
The file was quarantined:
File Name: dwNRRc3h.exe.part
Virus Description: Win32:Malware-gen
Help!!!
Thanks,
-Rick
