Hello,
Windows10 Chrome -- month ago got a malware popup when on tunein radio. Along with the following popup, a voice came on and said "your pc is infected with Malware, do not ignore this, etc:

After running adwcl...
the heuristic-scan had find these objects:

but these were log-files and not folders! perhaps this was the reason, why adwarecleaner can't delete it adn then crashed
I'have delteted these files manuel and now adware cleaner works well
It's true I haven't restarted the PC since this whole thing started. Plus while I have IE installed I don't actually use it, not even browser helper objects or anything like that. Though I don't know if that counts for anything.
Thanks for the feedback. The first time browser reset to duck was after identifying and removing 2 unwanted objectes (PUP.LEGACY.OPTIONAL). The second time it happened, however, was after the next safe mode scan in which no unwanted objects were detected.
Agreed. One strange result after running AdwClnr v7 safe mode scan -- first time used search engine noticed it had been switched to duckduckgo -- figured it's a browser hijack of some sort so chgd search engine setting bk to google and removed duck from list.
I then searched for add ons and related software and found none. Ran v7 safe mode scan again next day. No unwanted objects found, but ag...
Looks like safe with nw did the trick. Same two elements were identified, but this time the removal process included a step "cleaning chrome", which definitely wasn't in any of the other scans. When I restarted in regular mode and ran another scan with v7, there were "no unwanted objects found". Super psyched!!
Below are two log files -- first is the one generated after removal of two unwanted...

Ran v7. This time only found two elements -- same file "PUP.LEGACY.OPTIONAL". Computer restarted after I clicked clean/remove option. When I ran scan again, same two objects were found. If you can think of any options, please advise. If think running scans in safe mode w/networking is best option, I'll give that a shot.
Thanks again for all the help.
as i've described above when the tool discover up to 160 objects..and you admit it was a bug due to its young age..,i have only the possibility to -delete-...after it at the restart i opened yr tool gui and in the tab tools-quarantine- ther window that opened was totally blank..empty without any object of the 162 deleted...
but if i go to the -quarantine- folder in the directory of yr prog i ...
confirm that a part of the bug is fixed!
now what about the other part of the issue:
" and more there is the issue on the tab-tools-quarantine..that did not show the objects in quarantine.. "
thxs so much!
cheers!
:)
