Re: SAV 10 just started flagging MVPS hosts entires I don't see any *.mcafee.com and *.ca.com entries, but the latest release of the MVPS hosts file does contain entries for:
ads.mcafee.com
directads.mcafee.com
sdc.mcafee.com
sdc.ca.com
SAV may be a bit paranoid for flagging those entries, but they are definitely mcafee.com and ca.com entries, and modifying the DNS response for security sites is certainly a not uncommon tactic used by malware purveyors.
I doubt that SAV is targeting MVPS. It is more likely that they just got a bit sloppy with their hosts file interpretation.
