    Default False Positive; Win32.TDSS.rtk

    I'm having a bit of trouble.

    To keep my programming skills sharp over summer, I'm trying to recreate the old 1994 game, Master of Magic. So far, I can generate a random map, and display it in a window.

    The unfortunate thing is, when I do run the .exe, Teatimer goes berserk and tells me it's a rootkit; Win32.TDSS.rtk. It's not. I'm using nothing but the default Windows headers and libraries, and code of my own creation.

    I'm not sure how useful this information is, and I'm also not sure jow useful this will be without the .exe itself. If anything else is needed, just give me a shout.

    hello,

    please send your file to detections@spybot.info for analysis. With the file at hand we can determine why it gets detected as Win32.TDSS.rtk by the TeaTimer.

    Hello,

    I could confirm the false positive. The fix will be released with the next detection update scheduled for Wednesday 2009-07-29.
    I also sent you the corrected detection file via email.
