AdwCleaner download location

[Steve1982]

I noticed that when I downloaded AdwCleaner 7.2.3.1 from the MalwareBytes website the download location was actually:

https://download.toolslib.net/download/direct/1/latest?channel=release

Is that address legitimate? 

The SHA256 on the file I download is 00ae902b55282d3f4e6b506ed956d1b370d38d2b5a07f79b63e731b21970783c. Here is the VirusTotal link. If someone can please confirm the fingerprint I would really appreciate it. Thanks!

Greetings,

That is correct.  Toolslib was actually the original host for ADWCleaner even before Malwarebytes acquired it and it is still being hosted there to this day.  The download page for ADWCleaner on Toolslib can be found here and they even host Malwarebytes itself here along with many other security tools and system utilities.

Hello,

Yes, this hash is good and the download URL is too.

I encourage you to use the link on the download page as the redirection may change and make your link obsolete.
