AdwCleaner Removes Toolbars and Other Malware in One Click

Windows: Even the most careful among us can sometimes fall prey to crapware, and when that happens, you could spend quite awhile trying to uninstall every last bit of it. AdwCleaner makes that process dead simple, by finding all the pieces and deleting them for you.

Many antivirus programs and uninstaller programs can handle browser toolbars and other crapware, but sometimes, even they can't uninstall all the pieces. Heck, sometimes you aren't even sure what you're looking for. AdwCleaner is a portable program that finds every last bit of crapware on your system for you, with just one click.

Just start it up and click the Search button to scan your system. It'll show you a text file with everything it thinks is left over from crapware, and you can then click the "Delete" button to remove it all at once. Alternatively (and this is my preferred method), you can go find them and delete them yourself?since every once in awhile, it may come across a false positive. You can also click the question mark in the corner to exclude certain browsers from your scan.

AdwCleaner's been around for awhile, but a few readers have recommended it and we've never featured it, so we thought we'd give it a shout out. Hit the link to download the program.
