Warning over Rogue anti-spyware app
Quote
"A rogue anti-spyware application is falsely identifying popular security products and file system tools as spyware. Security firm SurfControl advises users not to touch the application, UnSpyPC, with a barge pole." http://www.theregister.co.uk/2006/04/07/unspypc/ http://www.spywareguide.com/product_show.php?id=2813 http://www.unspypc.com/ . . . Not just UnSpyPC but Safe&Clean also - http://www.voiceofthepublic.com/UnSpyPC/UnSpyPC.html - Includes a Very good analysis and breakdown, with lots of info and screen shots of the install files etc and the False reporting of the scan !

Re: Warning over Rogue anti-spyware app
I'm glad both softwares are listed on the rogue list of E. Howes also, that's the one I always use.
http://www.spywarewarrior.com/rogue_anti-spyware.htm I compared once this link http://www.spywareguide.com/product_show.php?id=2813 with E. Howes's list and spywareguide isn't complete and therefore unreliable.
