Re: Pest Patrol: Claria Temporarily Removed

Between the false positives and CA removing definitions pending a review this software is less then worthless as it provides the user with an extremely false sense of security. I will discourage people from trying/buying it. There are more trustworthy programs out there to recommend.

What bothers me is that if a Vendor appeals they remove the detection pending the resolution of the appeal. Why not leave it in instead? I can see it now; all major spyware/malware manufacturer's appeal to CA and soon PestPatrol will detect nothing!

I could not have said it better.

There is no justification for removing detection of previously indisputable adware or spyware during a "review" process. And for a product whose detections are rampant with false positives to decide to "exclude first" is rather laughable ...
