Hi,
this is a very annoying one, indeed. I develop a lot of scripts with the script-tool AutoIt (www.autoitscript.com). After testing the script it is then packed by the open source software compression packer UPX into an executable. And that is where Spybot (Tea-Timer) always recognizes this as a Spambot.mib infected file.
03.04.2009 19:16:19 Encountered and terminated Spambot.mib in C:\Users\reinhard\Music\OrangeCD\NTexFiles\CreateTeX.exe!


The problem is discussed on the AutoIt-Forum:
http://www.autoitscript.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=34658

I'm running Windows Vista Home Premium SP1, Spybot 1.6.2.46 on this system.
I'm willing to send additional info, if that's not sufficient.

Greetings
Titus

hello,

please email one of the files that get detected as Spambot.mib to detections@spybot.info with a reference to this thread.

Hi,
I sent the file detected by spybot on April, 6th (that same day). The latest post still shows "Needs user feedback". What's wrong?. I resent the module today once again.

Greetings

Hello Titus,

sorry for taking so long. I've taken care of this false positive and a corrected detection file will be released on Wednesday.

best,
buster!
