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!!!
I want to say Thank You Thank You Thank You Thank You! I was having a terrible problem with Royal Coupon on my computer. I literally stopped using my computer because it was so slow. I had downloaded other programs to clean my computer. Hardly a dent in speeding my computer up. 2 hours ago I downloaded Adw Cleaner. I went for lunch. Came back....And Voila!! My computer works like it is NEW AGAIN! This is amazing. Thank you!!!!!! I will recommend you!
Bonjour, lorsque je lance quickdiag (Xspeed,quick ou extend), j'obtiens un message d'erreur : line 14515 (file: "c:\users\mon login\quickdiag_1.09.19.1.exe"):error variable must be of type "Object"." Que se passe-t-il ?
Merci.
Hi, as report from libeccio42 and Jerry, there's some problem with speed-dial. Also in Firefox with speed-dial addon (https://addons.mozilla.org/it/firefox/addon/speed-dial/?src=ss).
After running ADW-Cleaner and reboot, the addons was deleted from Firefox. The string concerned is reported on this screenshot: http://i58.tinypic.com/fu0xt1.jpg
Thanks for attention
Excelent work, best tool ever against fk pups but u need add more detection against baidu, hao123, yac, psafe, McAfee Security Scan, fk speed tools and other junk from baidu that is spreading wildly.
I found AdwCleaner to be awesome, thank you very much! But I also found that even after running it, if I reinstalled Chrome, the speedial redirect would be reinstalled.
I found the speedial browser redirect also inserts a key into the Windows registry that causes Chrome to reinstall speedial whenever Chrome is reinstalled itself.
Details here:

The key on my Win 7 / 64 machine is
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Google\Chrome\Extensions\bakijjialdiiboeaknfpmflphhmljfkd
