Hi,
MS AntiSpyware Beta 1 has
reported "Unclassified.Spyware.Loader" in an overnight
scan. When it first installed, it did a scan and only
reported VNC which I chose to accept as I know I use VNC.
Questions:
i) Why did it pick up the "Unclassified.Spyware.Loader"
on the same evening of the installation but not in the
scan post-installation.
ii) The files it lists as containing
the "Unclassified.Spyware.Loader" are scren saver files
built for us. I have trouble believing they contain
spyware, how can I be sure?
I have had so many false positive problems with spyware
scanners which puts me off using them as often others
have found more false positives than they have positives
which really throw you off other work activity, and let's
face it, everyone is busy already.
I appreciate your thoughts on the above.
Regards,
Paul
