Hi there,

since last week's definition update Spybot SnD reports "Spywareinfo.TrafficZ" in my Bookmarks (Opera). It reports the following address of which I'm sure it's safe:

***.spywareinfo.com/~merijn/htlogtutorial.html

(stars edited by myself, replacing www)

The address is a walkthrough for HijackThis, if my memory still works ;)

The report remains with the newest detection rules (today).

OS: Vista SP1
Browser: Opera 9.63
Spybot SnD: 1.6.0.30
Update: 21.01.2009
False Postive in Scan Result

regards

And why are you sure it's safe? ;)

See for example this post (http://forums.spybot.info/showpost.php?p=279643&postcount=3).

(the domain has been sold and is now showing ads for rogues)

Hi PepiMK,

thanks for your quick reply. I didn't know the domain changed its owner that way ... :oops: (my mistake, should have done some research on my own, before posting, sry)

ciao
