Re: AdwCleamer wants to delete my whole Firefox profile folder

This element seems to be a FP caused by a generic detection.  

Sorry, but I don't think so.

There are  - only at the german TB forum - at least 50 topics with this ff profilename "41A66E7E5EE1".

Usually, every ff profilename is almost unique, 41A66E7E5EE1 isn't unique.

It is related to Yondoo browser hijacker, I've seen multiple topics with this variant.

 

my suggestion:

Check profiles.i...

Firefox pref Found - what does this option do and why is it considered malicious?

Hi all.

I googled before asking but never found anything relevant... So AdwCleaner found 1 threat, this is what is says:

Firefox pref Found:  [E:\Profiles\Firefox\prefs.js] - "extensions.quick_start.sd.closeWindowWithLastTab_prev_state" -  false

Anyone knows what this config option does and why is it dangerous?

Thanks.

Hello,

Sorry I was unclear. You can deselect the element "C:\Users\Admin\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\41A66E7E5EE1" from the "Folders", and do a clean.

This element seems to be a FP caused by a generic detection.

Thse issuses are in the log every time I do a scan. Either AdwCleaner does not remove them, or I still have some residual malware which puts it back.

Hello,

This detection is triggered by the fake firefox profile generic, which is a FP in your case.. Please uncheck it before cleaning.

Can you share the whole logfile too?

Thanks,
