I just updated Adobe Acrobat Reader from 9.2 to 9.3. I have SpybotSD running in my tray. Immediately upon updating, the Adobe Reader program was opened and then SpybotSD announced it had found malware and recommended deleting the file, which I did. Now I cannot run Adobe Reader. Is this a false positive?

OS = Windows XP Home Edition
Browser: Firefox 3.5.7

Process ID: 3536
Filename: AcroRd32.exe
Found in: C:\Program Files\Adobe\Reader9.0\Reader\...
Identified as: WarezP2P.cck

SpybotSD txt report attached as zip file. Thanks.

Hello,

please make sure to fully update Spybot S&D and to reboot your computer after that update.
Adobe Reader should not be detected by Spybot S&D, if the detection should occur again please send the respective file to detections@spybot.info with a reference to this thread.

Hello,

Updating SpybotSD and reinstalling Adobe Reader seems to have corrected the problem. Thank you!
