Adware no detection of viruses after scan

On the internet I typed in gmail to login and immediately got a Zeus virus detection message.  I bypassed it, downloaded adwcleanor, scanned the laptop and no detection of viruses.  False warning or blip in detection? My guess false detection with a hack using the common gmail login. Very sad.

Re: Owner

Good evening,

Yes! Thank you for pointing CCleaner out, it actually fixed my redirect problem!

No more random redirects when i click randomly on a clean page or a link!

Thank you!

Re: AdwCleaner - False detection?

Hello,

Thanks.

It seems to be a remaining trace of a previous infection, you can safely delete it.

Best regards,

Re: AdwCleaner "stopped working"

Hello again,

Updating the feedback.

This time I did some experimenting, and got a result: I didn't first have the debug on when cleaning the "uncleanable" folders, but now I created the same folders exactly in the same paths they were (empty ofc) and started scanning. After it scanned, it found those same folders as a threat. I clicked clean, and a few moments later, it "Stopped responding". ...

Re: AdwCleaner "stopped working"

Greetings,

First of all, thanks for your feedback.

You did nothing wrong. It would just have been easier with a debug logfile but we can still try to understand what was the issue.

Can you please share the scan logfile showing the folders that you cleaned manually?

Regards.

Re: AdwCleaner "stopped working"

UPDATE: It seems that when I deselected the folders, it continued to clean perfectly. Sadly I didn't run the crashing point with debug on, and cleaned the folders manually. Was my action correct or I did something bad?
