    In my monthly computer Win7 check, I found Ultra Adware Killer in WRT.
    After having used the usual ones like Norton, Kasperky or Malwarebytes, I gave that one a try. And it came up with uninstall.exe in 7.zip
    Now duckduckgo shows several entries calling it malware... If so, why has no other AV software found as the file has been installed for ?

    I uninstalled all the 7.zip entries from the computer, downloaded new (from majorgeeks) installed it, re-ran Ultra Adware Killer and the Virus Trojan 7835.78 did not re-appear. ยด(The hash of that virus was not recognized by anyone at virustotal.)

    How reliable is Ultra Adware Killer?
