WinFixer2005

Finally somebody else has encountered the problem - at least I think it's the same. See FP in X-Fonter below and my post in the Spybot S&D forum.

Did the suspect process come from a file named is-xxxxx.tmp? I believe that's an Inno Setup file. If it's coming from some other setup program, that means the problem is more fundamental.

I have not found any way to get the install to run without turning off Teatimer. I can see where you might be reluctant to do that for a downloaded program, but mine was a program I wrote myself.

Yes, I also got the same error trying to install V2.9.6.0 of DVDFAB Platinum.

To test this, I completely uninstalled both programs, DVDFAB and spybot reinstalled spybot without the latest update and re-ran the installation.

Resut= No problems.

Uninstalled DVDfab

Updated spybot to the latest definitions and re-installed DVDFab.

I also tested this by trying to install an earlier V2.9.5.9 of DVDfab and got the
same errors using the 18-NOV-05 updated definitions.



Result= Failed install with "winfixer2005" error.

I then installed the program telling Teatimer to allow it to run anyways. I then did a search for uninstalling 'winfixer2005' to find out where it puts it's files, registry entries, etc, etc and searched for them on my test system.

There were no instances of 'winfixer2005' on the system.

This looks like some kind of 'false positive' error by Spybot Search & Destroy.

Thanks for reporting this false positive. It will be fixed in the next detection update.
