Default not spyware


I ran the beta for the first time. It caught
my 'dameware' as spyware. Technically that is spyware,
but it's installed on my machine to do tech support on
others and currently no one is 'damewared' into my
machine, so I feel it should not detect that.

Default Re: not spyware

This is an important issue. Was the information describing what was found
accurate? I'll bet it didn't use the term spyware! Was the default choice
as to dispostion appropriate (was it ignore?)

If you hadn't been aware that Dameware was installed on your machine, would
this information have been helpful to you?
