Wait. So AdAware is useless? It has found viruses before though. I usually track the location and delete it myself if anything appears. (Even if it gives a registry key).
(And I have tried a variety of free antivirus programs. In the past, when experimenting with them, I downloaded five at the same time, and Antivirus seemed the best because it found the most programs.) AVG, which is mentioned above, was one of the antiviral programs I have tried. Does anyone have any other suggestions for a Antivirus program then?
Registry keys aren't viruses. Ad-Aware looks for spyware, not trojans or viruses or keyloggers. Kaspersky is a good antivirus program.
