Hello,

Let me disagree with you :)

Compatible with Windows 7, 8, 8.1, 10 in 32 & 64 bits.

Can you please make a working winXP version, or at least leave last working version easily accesible?

Yep, all fixed - thanks very much.  SpywareBlaster (SWB) updates its data base about every two weeks.  Can you tell me if the fix was such that it will no longer generally report SWBs preventative measures?  I fully accept that the odd false positive can happen but the quantity had become very high of late.

Hello reader, I using another new browser called Torch (torchbrowser.com) and I really hate, that ADWCleaner thing that Torch Browser is adware, can be that fixed? Its only normal browser based on Chromium, nothing bad in the browser, but the worst thing is, everytime I need to reinstall the browser after ran ADWCleaner, Thanks for help

I am not, just a friendly individual who tries to help people solve problems and learn about the solutions myself :) What other virus scanners and anti-malware scanners have you tried?
