ActiveX detections are usual FP's. Try doing an additional scan with Malwarebytes to confirm that. But I am fairly certain that these should not be detected. According to the internet and research that I did, ActiveX sets guidelines for processes, it can be exploited to some degree, but Adwcleaner would have removed them if found.
Since V7 I've been getting false positives on all my machines - often ones reported by others. I suspect they are down to using SypwareBlaster. This is an old but quite safe program which puts kill bits in the registry to prevent undesireable stuff running. I think it would be worth installing SpywareBlaster then "enabling all protection", then see what ADWCleaner makes of it. Thanks.
That tends to happen and is going to happen for awhile until they flesh out the new version. 7.0 is being developed extensively. Be sure to keep an eye out on Beta builds, not just stable ones.

Hello, never experienced problems with ADWcleaner, what happend since you are Malwarebytes? New CEO? The beta version tells me: PUP.Optional.DriverBooster But i have bought this registered program and installed for years and is not a PUP. Maybe for someone but nut for me. iTunes for me is a PUP but i need it for my bloody iPad.

Could you define the nature of the pop-up? Is it in the browser? On the desktop? through certain applications? When did the issue start happening? (Please answer these before continuing the read)
Since I am not certain about how it manifests, I can only offer a general thorough PC clean-up. The following steps should help you remove the issues, but make sure to post MBAM and ADW logs after sca...
Pretty much a great option. The problem is, even with anti-virus or anti-malware on phones, it still is not enough as phones are more complicated to detect issues on.
I have a doubt, if I run the program while being connected to the internet, it does not give me any detections, but if I run it without an internet connection, it recalls 260 detections, the same ones that the author of the post points out.
Hello,
It's not a browser hijack, it's the search-engine setting that AdwCleaner set after removing a malicious one. This will be back to google.com by default, with a dropdown in the Options UI to choose between seevral search engines.
Just to be sure, you say that Duckduckgo has been set even if you didn't get any Chrome or Firefox detections?
