Re: PUP.Legacy.Optional - 3 Threats Identified

Agreed. One strange result after running AdwClnr v7 safe mode scan -- first time used search engine noticed it had been switched to duckduckgo -- figured it's a browser hijack of some sort so chgd search engine setting bk to google and removed duck from list.

Re: PUP.Legacy.Optional - 3 Threats Identified

Looks like safe with nw did the trick. Same two elements were identified, but this time the removal process included a step "cleaning chrome", which definitely wasn't in any of the other scans. When I restarted in regular mode and ran another scan with v7, there were "no unwanted objects found". Super psyched!!

Below are two log files -- first is the one generated after removal of two unwanted...

Re: PUP.Legacy.Optional - 3 Threats Identified

John Ross -- thanks for the thought. May be something to what you're saying. The warning pops up on one site only -- tunein radio and only one program 94 wip sports talk. Doesn't happen when I listen to CNN, 97.5 Sports, and various music stations on tunein; only when I listen to 94wip so perpahs it's something that's being downloaded from that site only.

As for safe mode w/networking, was hop...

Re: 19 may last update..??..:(

Development is a process, if the tool didn't work, people wouldn't use it at all. Two essential parts of the software are updated. Virus Database and Software on your computer. The database can and usually is updated regularly on the cloud, it's how your software detects that certain programs or files are malicious. Software on your computer is to be able to work with your PC. Sometimes if the ...

Re: when a new vers update of adwcleaner?

Hello,

As we said earlier, we're working very hard on the next major release (v7). I'm sure you'll understand as soon as it becomes available (very soon!).

- Detections are still added nearly every day through database updates. Don't worry. :)

I'm closing this one.
