    Default FALSE POSITIVE from BAD URL BLOCKER?

    The following was reported while bringing up a MS technet web site at the following link:

    http://www.microsoft.com/technet/scr...r/default.mspx

    The error message was:
    Spybot-S&Ds IE helper has detected an URL that is known as a malicious resource.

    URL: http://view.atdmt.com/MRT/iview/mcrs...rect/01?click=
    Identified as: /Avenue A, Inc.

    This is from a Microsoft Support site. Is it a false positive? What does the site do if indeed it is malevolent?

    I'd like to suggest this forum accept cut and paste images as the error from your S&D program only outputs a graphical error message which I had to retype in its entirty.




    Thanks for your great work.
    All the best,
    John
