Yahoo on Friday confirmed that its recently released anti-spyware toolbar is buggy and has mistakenly linked an alleged spyware program with a product that has nothing to do with the application in question.

A company representative said late Friday that its Anti-Spy browser toolbar incorrectly identified alleged "hijacker" software known as SearchCentrix as being bundled with Claria's eWallet product. Hijacking programs redirect search results or tamper with browser settings, according to Anti-Spy.
