I'd been wringing my hands for two days over a failed computer (laptop) and the possibility that my Acronis sector-by-sector Image backup was not restoring it to a usable state using the Arconis Recovery Media boot.  I tried it twice and each time it resulted in a BSOD.

Last night, I searched for a method to create a Windows Recovery Tools USB from another computer.  I first happened on the is...

The ADW Downloads page currently offers three downloads:

AdwCleaner    7.4.1    Release

AdwCleaner    7.4.1    Beta

AdwCleaner    7.4       Release

I had previously downloaded the Beta when only the second and third lines were there (it seemed to work well),   When the top line appeared this morning, I assumed from the filename that the Release was the same file, but I wondered about it, an...

trying to download the 2019 version of your website but the link is broken and your website is loading very slowly with an error meassge

the error meassge is timed out !

Hello,

Sorry for the delay.

We do care about feedbacks, but it happens we miss some. We actually added a new way to report us False Positive in the latest version, using a right-click > "Submit FP" on an item of a scan results.

Your FP is confirmed and has been removed some time ago, you don't need to take any specific action as the definitions will update by themselves.

Regards,

The items listed under domains in the original post will have been given a value of 4 in the registry.  This figure means they are "blocked" (by SpywareBlaster or whatever) so should never be reported by ADWCleaner.  We have had this type of FP before so it seems ADWCleaner needs to be programmed to ignore those with that value.

Referring to the FAQ linked above.

• AdwCleaner specializes in adware and PUPs removal and does not offer real-time protection. It does a more thorough job of cleaning the left-over traces, OS configurations, and system modifications caused by malware.
• Malwarebytes focuses more o...
