    How to report ADWcleaner false positive detections?


    Hi,

    Does anyone know how to report ADWcleaner false positive detections without signing up to the ADWcleaner help forum? I've noticed a couple of problems recently. "Self Destructing Cookies" add on for Cyberfox (Firefox 64bit) was recently being detected but that seems to have been resolved. Now I see another issue but can't figure out how to submit it without having to use a disposable email address.

    Thanks!

    Not sure where else would be appropriate to report it? Surely the only place is the developer?

    I think that you are correct! Sometimes there are "Report" buttons on support websites or even within the software. I'll try the forum.
