How does a company get on the 'list' of non-spyware apps

How does a company find out about how to get on the list
of apps that will not be identified as spyware?
Currently some of the items we are installed are flagged
as possible spyware.

There are a couple of different locations, and a KB article, that may be
useful:

1) URL for vendor reports of false postives:

http://www.spynet.com/falsepositive.aspx

2) URL for EITHER vendor disputes of listing of their product by Microsoft
Antispyware, or for asking that a product or control be listed as known
(spyware free) by Microsoft Antispyware:

http://www.spynet.com/vendors.aspx

KB article giving the criteria for listing of an application by Microsoft
Antispyware:

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/892340 Microsoft Windows AntiSpyware (Beta)
identifies a program as a spyware threat (Listing criteria and Dispute
process)
