  1. Thanks for the advice. I will back up my registry and let ADWCleaner do its thing.
  2. I was initially working with a Consumer Success Specialist & Malware Removal Specialist, but I guess he wanted to go home and referred me to the forum. The main purpose of my inquiry is to ask if all the registry threats Adware Cleaner finds are safe to clean. My understanding of my registry is very limited and just by looking at the scanned keys (threats) tells me nothing about what to keep or clean. I don't want to just accept all the checked threats and end up with a broken PC. Are they really all threats to be trusted and cleaned? Reading ADW Cleaner forums, some people have been burned with ADW Cleaner by cleaning all the checked registry files. Also, I have read that AWD Cleaner Restore will only restore folders. Registry keys are permanently deleted.So, can I trust ADW Cleaner's results to safely clean the registry threats that they have checked? And if I run into problems, will ADW Cleaner's Restore or Windows System Restore fix everything. Thanks for any help. I have included a log file. AdwCleaner[S6].txt
  3. Daledoc1 Just for the heck of it, I unchecked the "recover missed tasks" box in the update settings box. Now the "if missed" box shows N/A and the updates are working for the first time. Every 3 hours there is a new update version. That's the only thing I've changed. Go figure. I'll monitor it for awhile just to be sure it's not me being delusional. If so, I'll get back to you. Thank you for taking the time to help an old guy.
  4. I recently installed Malwarebytes PRO for windows 7 that was purchased from Amazon.com. The install went without problems I think and it updated to Premium 2.0.1. okay. The dashboard indicates that Real Time Protection is enabled. However, the automated database does not work. The date and time are scheduled in the automated scheduling box for updates. The Dashboard Scan Progress indicates the time of next database update. But it does nothing. It does update though when a scan starts or by using Check for updates. Also the Automated Threat Scan seems to work. Dashboard shows that I'm licensed. I did notice that even though the MBAM icon is in the system tray, MBAM is not in the MSConfig startup tab. Thought that was strange. I have been noticing other posts in the forum with the same problem but no fixes yet. Will appreciate any help given. Thanks.
