    Default Heuristics: Fraud.SecurityTool in JPG

    Operating System: Windows XP Home
    Browser and Version: Firefox 3.5.6
    Version of Spybot S&D and Date of the latest update: 1.6.2, I just checked for new updates
    Where did the false positive occur: right click scan result

    Some of my JPG files are marked as Fraud.SecurityTool under Spybot - Search & Destroy (Heuristic) when I do the right click scan.

    I will email a sample JPG to detections # spybot dot info as instructed in "How to submit" sticky thread.

    Email sent!

    The password of the file is "infected"

    I hope this helps, and I hope this really is a false positive!

    Many of my JPG files are marked as Fraud.SecurityTool under Spybot - Search & Destroy (Heuristic) when I do the right click scan. Never detected during Spybot scan of complete system.

    Can supply details but sounds the same issue as that previously reported.
