I downloaded SyBot S&D, V. 1.5.2 yesterday and ran a scan. Result was a Win32.Delf.zq and pointed to libeay32.dll. Am concerned-had same problem as others with not being able to fix it with SB S&D...ending up in a reboot. I see some references suggesting this is a false positive, yet it is identified elsewhere as a Trojan targeting Banks. What is it and can/should it be removed?

hello,

this is a false positive, the libeay32.dll is related to OpenSSL.
There are trojans exploiting the filename but in this case we already confirmed the false positve and will release a fix for our detection rules with the next update.

Spybot team recommand me smitfraudfix and others tools.
I scan the file libeay32.dll with 31 anti virus tools and all of them indicate there is no problem.
I am happy when I read it is a false positive and I wait the update.

Thank's
