Did you remove previous versions of the software from your PC and are you sure you are using the latest version? Make sure you are running only one instance of anti-malware software.

Glad to see everything is working again. 7.0.2 seems to be a lot more stable than other versions, hopefully, this continues. Also, you could upload your pictures to a free image upload site and paste the links here :)

Here's the log... I still get that one PUP.Optional.Legacy result, dammit.

So it's really an infection after all?

False positives can happen from time to time, nothing new there. If the application is interacting at a system level and is not known, it will flag that it as a potential issue. AdwCleaner getting bought by Malwarebytes did nothing but good, so I am not sure. You can report the file or software that is causing the pop-up.

After the logs, do you have any other anti-virus or active anti-malware software that could be interfering?Have you tried restarting PC, running RKill to kill potentially malicious software and scan with AdwCleaner? What about Windows safe mode? does that work?

If it would be a false positive, you would be safe, I am not sure it is. Have you tried doing a full scan with your anti-virus software and Malwarebytes? Did they pop up a false positive as well? It is always best to check with multiple anti-malware software before jumping conclusions.
