Re: AdwCleaner 6.0 won't delete detected threats.

Thanks

Have a great day

BTW, I guess the adware is still present in my system, because it is not allowing the AV firewall protection to turn on, also I'm not able to stream anything on Chromecast because of some "firewall issue", which I'm suspecting is beca...

Is this another case of False Postives?

Okay, I've been look around the other threads here for an answer.

Suddenly AdwCleaner can't remove three services identified as threats

Can you help, admins? AdwCleaner has always removed any threat it finds. Today it failed repeatedly to remove these three services it identified as threats. CCleaner, SuperAntiSpyware, Norton, HitMan Pro and Glary all fail to detect anything wrong.

Is this an ADW false positive or if not, how do I remove & replace the services permanently if they are infected?  

In regedit the service keys ar...

Cannot remove suspected (?) services. Please help.
