Re: Antispyware program

Hi Dwarf,

Thanks for that, it should have read :

it tells you if you remove a program's advertising bot , it could cease to function - could be Antispyware also has one and this is what Spybot is detecting.

You wouldn't want the app. searching for these things to also have one itself - this is why it's a good idea to scan Antispyware with something else e.g. asquared Free 3.5 - of course it may have been a false positive.

Had a false positive myself recently - Quicksys regdefrag was alerting Avast . The Quicksys site said they were working on it. I have since downloaded the most recent version without a problem - works perfectly.

Spybot is a great app. - don't be alarmed by the fact Spybot has CDilla in it's ignore list by default , see
Cdilla - cdac11ba.exe, C-Dilla, cdac11ba Removal
