Hi,

I have a little problem. My wife runs Win 2000 Pro SP4 on her computer and her bookmarks written with Greek letters or other letters except Latin letters are recognised (in red) as malware. Isn't there a way to do something about it? The problem has not disappeared.


Thanks for your suggestion.

Hello.

Please produce a short log (showing items flagged)

Open SpyBot.
Check for problems.
When finished, right click and choose copy results (not the full report) to clipboard and post that into topic.

Hi,

It's going to be more difficult than I thought. The problem is the following:

1. about 15 users have experienced the problem and it's in different languages:

Greek - Chinese - Japanese - Russian - Bulgarian - Ukrainian and others...

hm,
could you tell me which versions of Spybot S&D and Windows are being used?
For instance Spybot 1.3 or 1.4, Windows 2000 english, greek and so on.

I am going to send you a modified domains.sbs. Please save it to the includes folder of your Spybot S&D. It will replace the old one and Spybot needs to be restarted for it to accept the new file. I will require your email address for this, you can pm me. Unfortunately the domains.sbs is too large to be attached to my post.

The same bookmarks will most likely be flagged, but with the new domains.sbs and the Spybot Report file we can identify which domains have been flagged.

If possible please use the function within Spybot to export your report file and attach it to your next post.

Hi,


Sorry to answer so late. Spybot 1.5 beta took care of it. No detection.:)
Thanks.
