Spyware False PositiveOct 19 2005 11:31PM Quark IT - Hilton Travis (Hilton quarkit com au)
Hi All,
Anyone in Australia who uses (or has a client who uses) Pracsoft
(medical practice management software) will find that both CounterSpy
and Trend's anti-spyware will detect a file in %windir%\system32\log.dll
as All-In-One SPY 2.0. This is a file from Pracsoft and is not the
spyware claimed.
Trend knows about this and no-one's heard back.
I reported this to Sunbelt Software a few days back and they have
confirmed that it is a FP and they have fixed it in their database, the
next definition update will reflect this change.
http://www.threatcode.com/ <-- its now time to shame poor coders
into writing code that is acceptable for use on today's networks
War doesn't determine who is right. War determines who is left.
