I can't install NPE, setup always crashes. Had HMP, removed it because it was just a scanner, i need a remover too. EEK & AdwCleaner seems the best choice for me.

Instead of adwcleaner you can try Malwarebytes. Adwcleaner was acquired by Malwarebytes. Malwarebytes will detect everything that adwcleaner will detect plus more.

I know it was acquired. Malwarebytes is written in big, bold letters on the GUI. :ROFLMAO:
I need the portability of AdwCleaner & EEK. I generally prefer On-demand scanner which are portable.
Zemana, NPE & HMP are out for me, so what is left is what i installed.;)

Yes Zemana does have a portable version which is also free. Zemana 3 will be released very shortly and you can give it a try. Currently it's in closed beta. I'm testing it out and so far I've liked the improvements over version 2.

Does Zemana 3 still make tracking files in Windows folder?
I stopped using Zemana 2 because of this &it's annoying detecting of everything.

Zemana version 3 needs to be installed and it's not portable. The portable version will be released after it comes out of beta. You can join the closed beta if you like. It's on this forum itself.

It's okay, i won't use Zemana. :oops:
I don't even run OD scanners for months, just need them for my peace of mind. So i don't need any complicated & functionality rich software, i just need a scanner for garbage that my main security setup missed, which is almost all the time, nothing.

Yeah online scanners are just for peace of mind. If you're a careful user they won't find anything
