AdwCleaner option default settings & subsequent result cleaning

Can anyone please advise:  I'm trying to remove DNSUnlocker from my mothers laptop, & was told AdwCleaner could do the job.  I am testing it at home on my computer 1st, & it found 128 threats on my computer!  How accurate are the results shown?  I noticed there is no way within the program to do backup of some kind on changes I make.  If I have run AdwCleaner with option settings unchanged/at d...

I'm getting really frustrated now...

How come I always get threats? I make sure I visit barely any websites other than YouTube and I still get threats sometimes. Here's the log: https://up2sha.re/file?f=3KxbxlF0CqqX

What is this and how can you get something like this?  After using the internet, I got a warning from Malwarebytes that a malicious website has been blocked: piroga.space

Sorry to bother you once more. I'm kind of a paranoid mess sometimes, are you 100% sure that it's not a big deal?

Re: Suddenly AdwCleaner can't remove three services identified as threats

Man, in the recent update I think AdwCleaner kinda screw himself over, since I got the same error (but with 2 services) and I saw in your screenshots that the services aren't malware or anything, they are network drivers, network interface, ethernet, those are network drivers stuff, without those you probably won't be able to connect to the internet. Your pc is safe, but AdwCleaner must be fixed.

Re: faux_positifs ?

Pitty to say this is the first time this nice and excellent adw  program i´m using since its first versions behaves this way.

Just for youtr indo: M...
