Another FP with May 7 defs?
« on: May 8th, 2008, 11:13am »		 Quote Quote  Modify Modify
Today TH is flagging the install file for PC Tools Threatfire program.
 
To confirm it was not just a bad file on my drive, I downloaded a fresh copy of Threatfire from their website, and this new download is also being flagged by TH as a trojan.
 
File:  tfinstall.exe
Flagged as:  FraudTool.AntiSpywareBot.100
 
Magnus or Gavin .... Save me some time.  Instead of me sending you a zipped sample.  You can confirm for yourself by going to Threatfire's website and download a copy for confirmation.  http://www.threatfire.com/download/
 
 
To casual readers of this thread ... Do not take the recent false positives as anything against TH.  TrojanHunter is an exceptional anti trojan AND anti malware program!  From following the forum and using the program, it seems to me there have been recent extraordinary efforts made to make TrojanHunter more refined, sensitive and broad spectrumed in its detection abilities.  Do NOT let a small blip in FPs discourage you from purchasing this program!
 
I know I will be renewing my licenses soon and would not want to be without TrojanHunter on my computer.  This is not some sponsored endoresement or whatever.  I am just a long term happy customer who wanted to be fair and offer some props!

Today the following were flagged on my laptop's:
 
C:\Program Files\Spybot- Search & Destroy\Updates\sbsd152upd.exe
 
C:\Temp\sywareblastersetup40.exe
 
Both were flagged as: FraudTool.filename.exe.100
 
More false positives? These are old files that have never been flagged before. If need be... I can zip them up and send them off though I think that would be just a waste of time.
