ADAware

A friend is having trouble with ADAware. It freezes just before it completes. She is using the newest version and has updated it with the newest downloads.
She uninstalled it,ran Spybot and Regclean, rebooted and reinstalled ADAware but the problem persists.
Any suggestions would be welcome.

I think she found the problem. Pretty sure the HDD is crapping out.
Thanks for the input.

You would probably get a better response if you started your own thread...

Are you sure that it is installed correctly? And are you sure that you dont already have a virus?
