Re: False Positives V7

Since V7 I've been getting false positives on all my machines - often ones reported by others.  I suspect they are down to using SypwareBlaster.  This is an old but quite safe program which puts kill bits in the registry to prevent undesireable stuff running.  I think it would be worth installing SpywareBlaster then "enabling all protection", then see what ADWCleaner makes of it.  Thanks.

Re: problème au nettoyage adwcleaner_7.0.1.0

Bonjour,

Pouvez-vous partager le rapport de debug?

  1. Vous le trouverez ici : C:\AdwCleaner\AdwCleaner_Debug.log
  2. Vous pouvez ensuite le mettre en ligne sur le site suivant : https://up2sha.re - Un glissé/déposé vers la zone "Drop files or click to upload" devrait fonctionner.
  3. Puis partagez le lien généré dans votre prochaine réponse.

Merci.

Re: False Positives V7

ActiveX detection started after the new update. I am getting the same pop-ups. I can assure you it is not malware. ActiveX detections are usually guidelines for processes and services to follow. While they can be exploited, I doubt this is the case.

Re: My First Post: Are These Internet Explorer\ActiveX Compatibility Entries False Positives

ActiveX detections are usual FP's. Try doing an additional scan with Malwarebytes to confirm that. But I am fairly certain that these should not be detected. According to the internet and research that I did, ActiveX sets guidelines for processes, it can be exploited to some degree, but Adwcleaner would have removed them if found.

Re: More false positives

Try using the beta, see if that elevate the false positives. However, if your software is obtained in illegitimate ways (I know music software can get quite expensive), it might have some form of virus or malware attached to it. You can never discount the possibility.

Re: Launchpage infection

Hopefully, you can understand English or google translate this. I know this is an old forum, but since it doesn't have a definitive answer, I'd like to share my experience and a solution. My friend had a similar couple of weeks ago. You are dealing with a redirect virus or some form of adware. Quite annoying really.

Re: New version-Adware Cleaner crashes Win 7 64 bit SP1 at heuristics analysis

That tends to happen and is going to happen for awhile until they flesh out the new version. 7.0 is being developed extensively. Be sure to keep an eye out on Beta builds, not just stable ones.
