Hi, xp sp3, latest spybot updates

Never had detection about this file in the last days, then suddenly

26/11/2009 18.06.53 Allowed (based on authenticode whitelist) value "itype" (new data: ""C:\Programmi\Microsoft IntelliType Pro\itype.exe"") added in System Startup global entry!
26/11/2009 18.06.53 Encountered and terminated RXToolbar in C:\Programmi\stickies\stickies.exe!

That stickies file, I think it was version 7.0a has been DELETED...
There is no quarantine, that .exe has been just deleted...
Installed stickies 7.0b, no detection, and then reinstalled 7.0a, same as before, without detection... !

I think there's something related to the "mixing" of intellitype and stickies..
stickies is clean also for virustotal...
And NOW, spybot does not detect it, I had only ONE detection...

What's happening ?

hello,

it looks like this is one of the TeaTimer false positives that appear to be a result of an unknown state of the computer.
In this case RXToolbar should not have been detected in the first place.
Did this appear after an update and/or do you use other real time protection software?

I use Spybot, Antivir and Outpost Firewall...
I think this can be related to the Intellitype install, however...

Stickies is clean , according to virustotal, spybot, antivir ...

Another thing, DELETE files can be a problem, please add something like a QUARANTINE... I just clicked OK in the window, and find that stickies.exe was deleted... I didn't read anything about file deletion in teatimer window...
