What is false positive to one may not be false positive to someone else.
Shareaza is a p2p file sharing software that can carry lots of security risks, but if you think you want it, simply set the option to "ignore" and report it to spynet. They review the "ignore" submissions and can identify false positives in this manner. Personally if I see p2p software on a clients PC it is coming off if they want me to continue working on it. But, that's my personal opinion. -- Spider http://web.tampabay.rr.com/spider1 "james" <anonymous@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:0bae01c4f449$6b4ec1d0$a401280a@phx.gbl... > MS antispyware detect flashget (no adware-version !) as > spyware , shareaza as spyware and dameware developments > nt-utilities as spyware ... i heared from many other > false positives . > many false positives detection are not good for a MS- > product !! > many user without -pc knowledge- use this tool in the > next time... > i hope microsoft would quick repair this product. |

I whole heartedly agree.
If someone chooses to be ignorant to the dangers of P2P programs they can download it after I finish my work.
