Some registry entries cannot be removed by AdwCleaner

Hi,

I need some help on the AdwCleaner. The following 6 registry entries keep appearing in the scan log even though I have clicked on Clean option. I have run the Scan and Clean process for many times but it does not solve the problem.The strange thing is that If I manually search the registry entry using regedit (I searched for "0A167702A96FE1D4DA3296FCA77354D9"), it can't find anything.

AdwCleaner 6.0.3.0 download security warning

My AdwCleaner 6.0.3.0 download from the ToolsLib website is giving a security warning. I am happy with the service and the software but I need a safe download for Windows XP, as my XP computer and Google browser are no longer supported. I can't afford to upgrade my old Dell computer at this stage. Your help please?

Re: AdwCleamer wants to delete my whole Firefox profile folder

I created new firefox profile using Profile Manager, then I copied all files fromt the old profile to the new one. AdwCleaner did not detect any suspicious files in that new profile folder, so I guess I'm good?

Re: AdwCleamer wants to delete my whole Firefox profile folder

Hello,

Thanks M-K-D-B, sorry for misunderstanding.

@Simplex: Can you zip me the folder "C:\Users\Admin\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\41A66E7E5EE1" and your profile: "4ui6vnjc.Simplex" ? I'll merge the two so that you'll find a clean profile, and you will be able to clean with AdwCleaner the malicious one.

Thanks,

I am certain that when I told adwcleaner to delete this folder, my firefox pro...

This element seems to be a FP caused by a generic detection.  

Sorry, but I don't think so.

There are  - only at the german TB forum - at least 50 topics with this ff profilename "41A66E7E5EE1".

Usually, every ff profilename is almost unique, 41A66E7E5EE1 isn't unique.

It is related to Yondoo browser hijacker, I've seen multiple topics with this variant.

 

my suggestion:

Check profiles.i...

Re: AdwCleamer wants to delete my whole Firefox profile folder

Hello,

Sorry I was unclear. You can deselect the element "C:\Users\Admin\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\41A66E7E5EE1" from the "Folders", and do a clean.
