I recommend that you use a different computer to download this tool because sometimes infected machines prohibit the download of Malware removal tools. Save it to an USB Memory Stick and transfer it to the infected machines.
Start your Web Browser and Google for ADWCleaner and only download it from the www.bleepingcomputer.com website as shown in the screenshot below. It’s the first link in the search results.
Now you should see something like in the Screenshot below. Click on the blue box “Download Now @BleepingComputer”
Click on “Save File”
After the download is done start you Explorer by clicking on the icon shown below.
Navigate to your Downloads folder and double click on the ADWCleaner tool as shown below.
For Security purposes Windows asks you if you like to “Run” the downloaded Software. Click on “Run”
ADWCleaner starts and is waiting for you to choose an Action. Click on Scan
Now the scan is in progress and will take a few minutes
The Scan will be done as soon as the Cleaning Icon becomes available. Click on it to clean without reviewing the files or go through each tab and review the results. I recommend to take the selection made by the program.
