I ran a full scan of a windows 10 laptop using the latest consumer version of Malwarebytes 3 (paid), and nothing was discovered. But shortly after the scan I had a fake pop up window telling me chrome was outdated and to click on a random link to update it. (I did not). So then I ran a scan with ADWcleaner and it found a deleted a couple folders (see below).  I'm not sure if my issue is resolved yet, but my question is, I assumed Malwarebytes 3 was all I needed....    Since ADWcleaner is owned by malwarebytes I would have assumed the same detection rules would have been incorporated.... Should I be running other tools as well on a regular basis (like ADWcleaner and other 3rd party tools)?
