Well, ADWCleaner wins.  I did another check and found a series of PUPs that were not present before I installed Reimage Repair.  Now I've got to try to find another program that will work as well as Reimage Repair did.  It really did fix a lot of problems.  Of course, trying to infect my system with PUPs and adware doesn't endear the program to me.  

Thank you for everything.

If there was something other than Reimage Repair, I might understand, but, that is ALL that ADWcleaner found.  I've done some checking, and depending on the source, some think Reimage is PUP/Adware, and some don't.  All I know is, it cleared up a number of problems I was having, so I'm kind of reluctant to remove it.

I don't know why, but every time I run ADWCleaner it wants to remove Reimage Repair.  I don't want this removed.  

Can anyone tell me why ADWCleaner wants to?

ADWCleaner removed some bad stuffs from my PC... and, even though I've run and cleaned at least 6 times, this is still on my PC - have no idea what it is or what it does? HKCU\software\microsoft\windows\currentversion\ext\stats Or, where to find it to remove manually??? Thanks for your help Karen

Désolé d'avoir repoussé plusieurs fois l'échéance de sa sortie..
