Adaware help

Variol (Farseer) Elmwood · 02-25-2009, 08:48 AM

I just ran it and got the below info. I did reboot twice but it still sees these things. I selected "remove all" but it does not seem to want to do that. Any suggestions?

Go to CNet or ZDNet's DL section. Search for "Malwarebyte's Anti-Malware" free antimalware app. Download and install. Run the app. Malware will be gone. ....(hopefully,,it worked great for me, YMMV)

Why can't Adaware fix it?

Melirune · 02-25-2009, 12:04 PM

Probably because it is the "free" version. It will show you the problems, but won't fix them unless you pay for the full version.

Variol (Farseer) Elmwood · 02-25-2009, 12:15 PM

I figured out how to do it. You have to go to the "Quarantine" tab.

Unless they've changed their policies Adaware will remove problems it detects whether you have the free version or the paid.

Melirune · 02-25-2009, 03:54 PM

You are dirty! FREEZE, *you* with the dirty PC, move away from the crowd!

Please go here: https://www.grc.com/x/ne.dll?bh0bkyd2 Click the proceed, and check yourself out. The little text within the neat looking tabs are the actual links to the different tests. I would suggest you test *all* available, and read what you can do to protect yourself.

AdAware is one of the "good guys" in the anti-malware market. They'd prefer you to buy their stuff, but their free stuff still works.

You can also go to Trend Micro (www.trendmicro.com) for an on-line scan.
