Ad-Aware SE1R126 12.10.2006 False Positives

re: today's update

These 3 reg entries appear to be the same ones that were falsely identified and fixed in a previous update and are showing up again.

Wow, mine don't look much better DP, I get 4 similar to yours, and a Zlob ? Also on trying to copy/paste off the logs, the writing almost shrunk to nothing. I had to save a log to file, then copy/paste off that.

I get the same on a freshly installed OS. Definately a FP.

Here's what I got, ran several other scans with other products, they found nothing. Sure hope adaware gets this worked out, they seem to be having a lot of false positives lately.

It doesn't matter which version of Ad-Aware (Pro, Personal, etc) you have, the definitions file defs.ref is the same for all.

Well, I can't even get the defs to install properly. Actually have had little issues with the last 2 def releases. Today it downloads and acts like it installs, but doesn't :/ Maybe I should wait a couple of days?

This time displayed oddly in a similar way to last time when there were problems but seemed to install alright, despite that. By oddly, I mean the graphic showing the percentage D/L'd started showing 5% before I clicked to accept the D/L, then began again after I accepted it.

Could this be a FP as well, I did a search and came up Dry.
