It isn't possible to install Ad-Aware in safe mode, or when it already is installed.Is Ad-Aware listed in Control Panel's list of installed programs?Does the computer work in normal mode?If yes, please create and upload a new system information file from normal mode.Have Ad-Aware worked before?Did you install, uninstall or update anything the last time that Ad-Aware was working?When

Can't upgrade or uninstall Ad-Aware 11 Started by Yammerhant , Aug 31 2014 06:46 PM Please log in to reply 1 reply to this topic #1 Yammerhant Yammerhant Newbie Members 1 posts Posted 31 August 2014 - 06:46 PM I received a message to upgrade Ad-Aware, and downloaded the upgraded version. However, trying to run the installer gives the http://www.lavasoftsupport.com/index.php?/topic/34056-cannot-install-program/ error message "Couldn't open MSI transaction". Attempting to completely uninstall Ad-Ware gives the error message "Ad-Aware has encountered an error during installation. We are sorry for the inconvenience.

Please, check that there are no pending installations in Windows Update and that you aren't doing any other installations. It might be necessary to disable automatic installations in Windows Update and restart the computer to stop Windows Update.If you still get the same error message, please, collect logs and other information by following the instructions in http://www.lavasofts...roubleshooting/ to let Lavasoft investigate your issues.

I then continued to try scan for it using "SUPERAntiSpyware" then after with "Avast" but the virus gave me a blue screen and after it booted up again, tried to use the programs again.. They opened once then crashed mid scan and when I try to open it again, it gave me this error: "Windows cannot access the specified device, path, or file. You may no have the appropriate permissions to access the item." This happen to every single antivirus program I tried to use.. "SUPERAntiSpyware", "Avast", "Adaware" (this one couldn't connect to the network), "Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware" and "GMER".. it also changed the program's files inside the folder.. "Spybot search and destroy" didn't find anything when finished scanning. *Extra notes.. 147603851:1958622199.exe was on the task manager, which I couldn't end task or tree.. After the blue screen, everything else was performed in Safe Mode I also tried to run Autoruns which just auto closes.. I wanted to see what was loading on start up, so i checked msconfig and nothing suspicious When using firefox, when I try searching stuff on google, it 'redirects' me it a different site .. random advertising sites, but reloading or refreshing fixes it.. checked host files and it seemed normal but i'm no expert I also understand that ad-aware and avast aren't ment to be used together but i only use adaware for scanning.. i always disable the other scanner before
