  1. I was interested to see the inclusion of a scan for pre-installed software include in ADWCleaner 7.4.0, so decided to test it. Ran a scan, and it successfully identified a number of potentially unwanted packages. Selected one that I was not bothered about losing, and quarantined it. Quarantine files were successfully created in C:\ADWCleaner\Quarantine\v1 So far so good. However, when I tried to restore the package from Quarantine, even after selecting the appropriate entry, the Restore button was greyed out. Why is this ? Is there a way to manually restore the package (log details are insufficient to do so) Please understand, that the package is dispensable, and this was just a test, however it does point to a worrying lack of testing of this particular ADWCleaner function prior to its release for public use.
  2. I'd just like to add my welcome as well Merijn, good to see you on the team here.

    Hello

    Hi Mac (sorry Scotty force of habit), nice to see a familiar face.
  5. Hi I'm Gary R, I help out at MRU, Spyware Warrior and Tom Coyote. Recently installed a copy of RR as I like to run programmes before recommending their use. Initial install was from Security Wonks http://projects.securitywonks.net/projects...oad.php?file=82 and appeared to install OK. I then attempted to update and appeared to be successful, but after that everything went wrong. Programme failed to respond and I shut it down. When I tried to start it up again all links/shortcuts to it ceased to function (including the ones in start/all programs) giving a message that I didn't have the correct permissions to access it. clicking on the exe in the Rogue Remover folder was similarly unsuccessful. I attempted to uninstall it and got the same prompts (sorry didn't note the exact wording). Tried a new install to enable me to uninstall it, still no joy. Luckily I always create a Restore Point before any new install, so I was able to delete files and folders (or at least all the ones I could find) and do a restore to remove the registry entries. Any ideas what happened?
