Buen, where's Buen. He's very helpful.
Perhaps look in , start, documents, downloads. Or Program files ?
I just type it in the search box (bottom left of the screen)
looking "c" downloads

the avast one has put an icon on desktop, but cannot find adw unless you have to download everytime you want to run it. I know I downloaded it as I ran a scan then and there.
I leave my ADW in the downloads file and download when I want to run it,(which you have to do)
Does it not show if you do as Ummmm suggests?
To find it click on the start button, then documents and then downloads.
Avast is normally accessed via the little orange icon at the bottom right of your screen. It looks like this:

(If you can't see it you might need to click on the 'Show hidden icons' button, which is a little white triangle, first).

I'm not sure where AdwCleaner will have gone to but you should be able to find it clicking the Start button and typing 'adwc' into the search box. When you've found it in the results section there,you can then right-click on it and select 'Pin to start menu' (and/or 'Pin to taskbar').

(I haven't got a clue about what Danny's doing. The file in his Downloads folder should be the setup file, which you only need to run once. Perhaps he might benefit from the advice in my previous paragraph?)

Thank you all for your help.
I am still hunting for the ADW I downloaded I guess one day it will pop up out of hiding.
Thanks again.
