    AdwCleaner Version Update

    It's targetting Autoit as a threat. It's a false positive (behavioural analysis). It happens a lot and with several AV tools.

    If they are serious about developing it, they should either incorporate it in Mbam or give it ability to white list.

  10. $10 says that's probably in the works (nothing more than a hunch).
    They seem to buying up every standalone malware/rootkit/junkware/adware/ransomware/exploit tool in order to cram them all into the new, "next generation" product.
    It's hard to fathom how this one-tool-to-do-almost-everything-under-the-sun approach will work, in the long haul.
    With increasing complexity comes.....increasing complexity.

    One program trying to do everything is not really a "layered" approach, heretofore considered a computer security "best practice".

    Then again, who knows.
    Perhaps they will pull it off.
