adwcleaner_7.0.0.0

I have just recently downloaded the new version, before it worked very well now when I run the software and then I want to clean my computer, windows tells me that it will close the program as it has stopped running. I have done this several times and I still get the same problem.

Can anyone help me

Potential false positives?

Hi

I'm running the latest version of ADW cleaner and got this back as my report.

Re: Can I remove these folders/keys safely with adware cleaner?

PUP is a potentially unwanted program. Basically, something that comes with bundleware or through other sources. As fr33tux mentioned, you should just remove them and not worry about it much. In general, if you see something with WARE in scans, it is some form of malware.

Hello,

Yes, you can remove these elements.

What exactly does this mean, and is this a real threat?

Yes, those elements have been detected with the heuristics detections (hence the family name).
