Hi
With the latest updates (July 25) AVIRA now flags "SPYWAREBLASTER" as having "adspy/Spyblast adware".
This appears to be another FP ... just a warning.
Cheers

| Thanks for the warning! I haven't seen this one myself, but last night and again this morning (possibly the same set of definitions) AntiVir called out the Cygwin file toe.exe as containing TR/Dldr.cws.FY: there was another update around noon (UMT - 4 hrs) that removed this finding. In fact some other anti-virus products had this same trouble with toe.exe, which is an old part of the Cygwin Ncurses package. |

Just ran into that right now. Must be a FP. I just put the file in quarantine for now.

Anyone know when it might be fixed? Should be fixed by now but is not. :/ |

Thanks for the warning Fredra. My PC is set to scan in the wee small hours of Sunday morning and I did not need any surprises before tomrrow morning's cup of Joe.
