I have Avast Free version 8, did a scan and it found this win32:relevantAA PUP. I tried to move it to the virus chest, Avast said access was denied. So I selected delete and it was successful. Then I ran another scan and it came back clean with no threats detected. I tried to look online and had no luck finding out what win32:relevantAA really is. I think it is some sort of adware file, Avast said the threat risk was low. I did a quick scan with Malwarebytes Pro, it did not find that file or anything else. Does anyone here know what win32:relevantAA is, what it does or is it dangerous?
Thanks for your help…here is the log first from AdwCleaner:

I did the delete function from adwcleaner, it said it would show a log file after reboot, it never showed the log, not even after I did the delete function again and rebooted a second time. Thanks again for your help on this.
run AdwCleaner again…and click search
if all the crap files listed in the first log you posted is not there, then they was deleted when you clicked delete
meaning your browser should be clear of any crap toolbars and files
if you want a thorough check, you can attach a OTL diagnostic log…
you find it in the same guide… then a removal expert will check it for any leftovers
