Today I stumbled upon this detection whilst using Adwcleaner 7.0.1.0:
***** [ Registry ] *****
PUP.Optional.YahooChrome, [Key] - HKLM\SOFTWARE\Yahoo\SS
Afterwards I scanned with other virusscanners (Malwarebytes, MBAR, and Roguekiller) and none of them detected aforementioned registery key. Thus, it seems like a false positive generated by adwcleaner.
Can someone confirm this?
Kind regard...
Try using the beta, see if that elevate the false positives. However, if your software is obtained in illegitimate ways (I know music software can get quite expensive), it might have some form of virus or malware attached to it. You can never discount the possibility.
Hopefully, you can understand English or google translate this. I know this is an old forum, but since it doesn't have a definitive answer, I'd like to share my experience and a solution. My friend had a similar couple of weeks ago. You are dealing with a redirect virus or some form of adware. Quite annoying really. I have used Malwarebytes and Adwcleaner to elevate the issue alongside these in...

Have you noticed anything else weird/out of the ordinary on your PC? Can you try booting into Windows "Safe mode with networking" and see if you can do any of the actions through that. Otherwise, I would recommend doing a thorough malware check just in case.
Full and thorough malware check:
1. Restart your PC in “Safe mode with networking.” 2. Install and run RKill to kill malicious processes...
Glad the issues have been sorted out. For future reference, I recommend installing some form of Adblock, as not only that prevents malicious ad pop-ups but also some malicious websites as well. Additionally, you can check any link before clicking it using Virus Total or Scanurl. Good luck!

After the logs, do you have any other anti-virus or active anti-malware software that could be interfering?Have you tried restarting PC, running RKill to kill potentially malicious software and scan with AdwCleaner? What about Windows safe mode? does that work?
If it would be a false positive, you would be safe, I am not sure it is. Have you tried doing a full scan with your anti-virus software and Malwarebytes? Did they pop up a false positive as well? It is always best to check with multiple anti-malware software before jumping conclusions.
