Hey,

A few years back I had this problem where I scanned my computer and everything was going pretty usual and stuff but it came across something called AdAware SE or Awdware SE or something like that...
It said something like "AdAware SE can NOT be trusted....." and basically they do this and that to your PC...

But now I'm hearing off other people it is a safe program.

Have I got it right? Was it AdAware SE or Lavasoft or anything?

...and are AdAware SE and Lavasoft AdAware the same?

Hb_Kai:

Ad-Aware SE was an older version of the current anti-malware by Lavasoft:
Ad-Aware 2008 Free – Lavasoft
http://www.lavasoft.com/products/ad_aware_free.php
Lavasoft (http://www.lavasoft.com/) and their products (http://www.lavasoft.com/store/lavasoft_store.php) are legitimate anti-malware products.
