WD constant popup about detected items.

[Guest]

Last night while scanning my machine, WD found RealVNC. I installed RealVNC
and want to keep it. I set WD to Always Allow RealVNC, saved the setting and
went on my way. About an hour later, a balloon in the task bar pops up to
tell me WD found something on its last scan and I should open WD to deal with
it. When I opened WD it said everything was fine, so I erased the history
hoping that would tell WD to stop with the annoying popups. An hour later,
guess what happens. So this time I did a new quick scan (the nightly one is a
full scan). Still no joy. Last night a full scan ran and still no joy. Every
hour I get the same popup. Since there is no apparent way to get WD to stop
it, I wonder if it will continue for ever. Apparently this sw really is still
beta.

A couple of other suggestions: Reinstate the detailed tools that were in
Beta 1. Put Check for Updates and the link to the WD home page in an
easier-to-find spot, like under the Help menu, not buried in the About box.

Something's wrong--I've got VNC on a number of boxes and am not seeing
anything like this behavior.

I suspect that perhaps your definitions are not fully updating--what
definition number do you see at the bottom of the main page--does it end in
..3, or.16?

If it isn't .16, try the steps in this KB article to see if you can get to
..16:
