Adlice Diag - New Diagnostic Tool

I saw this tool mentioned in another forum. And, I gave it a run....

Just curious to see if any members at Wilders' have tried it.

 

The results of the first quick scan showed eight problems, only. But, I have chosen to remove nothing, because they may be false positives. Also, I might bork my system, if I did remove.

 

The startup entry is for Webroot, so you shouldn't disable it. I'm not too sure about the DNS entries, it found some on my computer too. The desktop entries shouldn't be anything to worry about. The HideDesktopIcons registry keys are used for adding icons to the desktop.

Not everything it finds will be an actual problem.

I installed this last night and started a second scan today. The scan appeared to have frozen after running for some time. I opened Task Manager and is was using 4GB of RAM (not so good on a system with 8GB of RAM), so I terminated its process.

 

@Tarnak Also,this will be of help.

@roger_m

I was trying to post my reply a short time ago, when I got your PM alert. But, I ran into the dreaded where you can't enter any text in the address bar or note pad, etc. I had to reboot, and now, I can make a reply.

I wasn't concerned about Webroot because I have been a beta tester with them for years, since the beginning.

Thanks for the other information in your follow up post, too.

 

Hey, I'm the lead dev at Adlice Software
If I can answer your questions, don't hesitate !

We are trying to fix all the possible FP with new signatures, so things like this will be fixed across versions...
Also the new documentation is here: https://www.adlice.com/docs/diag/

Has anyone tried the Cloud reporting feature?
Here's an example of uploaded report: https://diag.adlice.com/report.php?id=ddd9f255201c4b117b84158a9ee226ff

We believe it will help a lot communication between helpers and OPs

 

Has anyone tried to run some scan with the version 0.9.9 so far?

 

Just tried the latest version. I left out scanning the registry this time.

...and the Reports History:

 

I was about to try it but found that a filter list from uBlock blocked your site. You maybe want to do something about it. It's this list: http://1hosts.cf/

I did a scan (Without the driver or internet but with MalPE) and I got false positives with:
- Startpage.com as standard search and startpage.
- The usual registry FPs others have mentioned already and this one I don't recognize: HKEY_USERS\S-1-5-21-3071807465-535171686-1052473121-1001\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced|Start_TrackProgs (Set to 0)
Google says it is the setting for "show recently added apps on Windows 10 start menu" that I have deliberately off.
- and then some Intel graphics driver stuff: igfxrenu.lrc and igfxrdeu.lrc showing up because of "Bad.Extension". Apparently it's an extension for music lyrics. Huh. Probably used as language files for the driver GUI. (enu and deu in the name point to this: english and deutsch/german are both languages I have installed o my pc)

 

Hey Nikopol, thanks for notifying. I've requested a block removal. Is it a default list or a custom one? I sent an email but not sure how that list is loaded...
Could you send your report? Either in private or on the cloud upload (keep the permalink secret, only we -as admin- will see it)

Hey @bjm_, thanks for the scan. Can you guys upload the reports with the Cloud removal so that we (admins) can see what's wrong and fix?
Thanks,

 

Perfect, thanks. I'll take a look
