Hi,

AdwCleaner does not detect or remove the adware "DNS Unlocker".

In my case, there were just some registry entries:

HKLM\SYSTEM\CURRENTCONTROLSET\SERVICES\TCPIP\PARAMETERS\INTERFACES\{c8f969ff-7124-4db8-b7f1-963aec660a87}|NameServer, 82.163.143.171 82.163.142.173

HKLM\SYSTEM\CURRENTCONTROLSET\SERVICES\TCPIP\PARAMETERS|NameServer, 82.163.143.171 82.163.142.173

The GUID (c8f96...) may dif...

Hello,

May you try a check with MBAM first ?

• Download MalwareBytes Anti Malware here.
• Launch MalwareByte's Anti Malware from your desktop
• Click on the tab Settings -> Detection & Protection -> PUP/PUM and check "Treat these detections like malware".
• Tab Exam choose Threats, click on Scan now, and click on Launch the exam.
• If something is detected, choose to Quarantine everything. If it as...

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

And I've noticed the possiblites of False Postives on the scan.

Might this be a case of it?

Same problem, in my case adw 6.0 reports 18  win7  services as threats, "faux possitifs??" , but  after adw clean and restart win7, the 18 threat services are not deleted...repeated the scan -clean and restart several times with the same results.

Pitty to say this is the first time this nice and excellent adw  program i´m using since its first versions behaves this way.

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...

Also I've ran many cleaning softwares such as FRST, Hitmanpro, Malwarebytes, EEK, rKill, Super Antispyware, TDSSKiller, and I even went and did a Combofix scan and nothing popped up on all of those except for ADWCleaner so it must be a false detection.

Hello, I've scanned about three times today with ADWCleaner and before I was heading out I started to recive this

Thanks for your reply.

First try: could you disable Zemana and/or Malwarebytes before running AdwCleaner (scan and clean mode)? Is this happening again?

Regards.
