Minor bug

[sk]

It's admittedly a small issue/concern, but I've noticed
that despite having checked the option to not have the
MSAS icon appear in the sys tray, it does not always work.
(Meaning, sometimes the icon correctly does not appear,
and yet other times it does, and I can only get rid of it
by closing down the program and restarting it again.)

NOTES: I am running W2K; I have the Real-Time protection
activated; the icon does not appear at startup, however it
appears after I've run a scan, and the only way I can get
rid of it is by doing what I stated above.

Other than that - and the fact that for some reason it
identifies a Font Frenzy program file (uninst.exe) file as
a "My Daily Horoscope" AdWare threat - I've found the
program to be very good. (I sent off an email to Font
Frenzy to make them aware of the situation; I can't fill
out a "fales positive" form since I'm not the developer or
associated in any way with Font Frenzy. Just thought I'd
mention it here, though, in passing.)

I don't have a fix for the vagaries of the icon. Your symptoms match what I
would expect if you had used the options, general, setting to turn the icon
display off. In that condition, it normally doesn't display until a
scheduled scan happens. So--the display of the icon is a bug, rather than
the lack of display.

It'd be great if you'd post the false positive in the .signatures newsgroup.
It'll probably get noted here, but that's where they look for these.
