[Ham-Computers] Question about Adaware program

[Loren Moline WA7SKT]

Brian,

Are you sure you used the program right..adaware..I have cleaned 3 computers 
with it and it worked great!

Did you quarantine the files..make sure they were checked? Then after 
quarantine..deleted?

I can tell you how to remove some manually.

Of course any updates for adaware will find more junk.
