Nope. I've had several cases where they don't. Sometimes they tell you
they can't repair, and sometimes they tell they have repaired the

manually takes care of the problem.
I can't believe that's the case if you're running as an admin when running
Ad-Aware Se Pro. Are you sure?
If you login as Administrator, Ad-aware SE doesn't check the entire
registry (even though the settings suggest that it checks all users.) If
you login in as one of the other users, and rescan, you will find (9 times
out of 10) more problems. These can't be fixed if the permissions are
locked, thus my idea to unlock the permissions for everyone to save time.
BTW, I also see the problem with Spybot and Spysweeper, so this isn't a jab
against Ad-aware.
