Lavasoft Ad-aware

I downloaded the Lavasoft Ad-aware...now what do I do. I do not know what to quarantine so that iTunes will work again. Can someone help. I think the Lavasoft Ad-aware is the next step to ending this once and for all.

As I said, I had it quarantine all including cookies (there were lots) so some auto-sign in functions no longer worked and I had to maunally put in passwords again when when I went to these sites.
Other than that I had no ill effects or wierdness at all after. In fact my pc ran and loaded a heck of a lot fater than it has in a long time. I've used/opened all of my programs since to be sure.
Of course I can't make guarantees, but just saying what happened to me.
Really I don't think you should worry.
You gotta let us know if it worked for you!
Go on....hit the button! 🙂

I quaratined everything becasue what else can you do in a situation like this. The only downside is you lose some cookies for auto sigin, etc. but it's a small price to pay. My problem is gone for good.
Another hint from my ordeal: the program found ceres.dll and couldn't quarantine until after re-boot. You have to run it again after re-boot to get rid of it.
then.....you are done!
BTW, I lost no media files or functioanlity of QT or itunes when done.
