False Positive for iLookup.GlobalWebSearch

[Tracy Klein]

This program generated a false positive for the iLookup.
GlobalWebSearch Spyware, which in fact is not anywhere on
my computer, and never was. I can't risk removing this
false positive, as if I do all of my Internet Explorer
Favorites will be deleted.

I checked and Microsoft's False Positive Report form is
for Independent Software Vendors, of which I am not.

I'm seeing the same thing. It looks like any .url or
folder under the My Favorites folder I created under the
default Favorites folder is being flagged for
iLookup.GlobalWebSearch. This is happening on every
machine I have have because I always create a folder
under the default Favorites folder to hold the favorites
I creat on that machine. This seems to be a false
positive since if I move all the .url files to the
default Favorites folder, iLookup.GlobalWebSearch is not
detected by the AntiSpyware tool.
