Beware the ides of unins000.exe with these definitions.

NS Keylogger is the ID--and so far it seems to be a false positive.

Which is an interesting concern... If something is
determined to be a false/positive, what is the expected
turn-around for corrected definitions? This could have
some ramifications if the fix didn't come out until the
next regular release... Thanks!

Hi

You must probably install this app again if you dont mark
this with ignore after scanning. I dont know what default
action is. I removed Spywareblaster a month ago and
MSAS is doing this protection instead.

Keep watching. 5711 is available now, but early reports apparently show the
same issue--but stay tuned--this needs careful testing--the version number
indications within the program are not reliable.

I'm not sure what is going on. I've tested on my machine with 5711, and the
false positive, which I did see with 5709 is now gone.

However, there are at least two different reports here of the false positive
with 5711 definitions. Since the version number as displayed by the program
is notoriously erratic, I'm checking further.

Here is what 5711 looks like on my machine:
