    Default Spyware Bomber Hiding in CloneDVD?

    hi all-

    When I tried to uninstall CloneDVD 3.61 via Add/Remove programs, Spybots resident protection activated and warned me:

    11/16/2005 4:25:22 PM Encountered and terminated SpywareBomber in C:\Program Files\CloneDVD 3-61\unins000.exe!

    please note this is the other clonedvd program from (http://clonedvd.net/) NOT Elaborate Bytes.

    is it really possible that they would hide spyware in the uninstall routine? is really scary if so. the program is listed as 100% "clean" by sites like softpedia, and I dont see it listed as having spyware on it. ideas anyone?

    It could be the same uninstaller problem reported here:

    This false positive will be fixed in the next update. Thanks for reporting!
