    Default Possible false positive for Divx player as RXtool bar

    This is what popped up while I was installing a Divx update, I clicked ok, but I would think this is a false positive, I have used and trusted divx for years. There was an offer to install Norton's tool bar but I unchecked the box, bellow is what Spybot reported. Could you let me know for sure what this is all about so I can reinstall without worry, thanks

    Spybot has encountered and terminated a process that is listed
    as part of a malicious software

    Process: ID 4028
    file name: Divx Plus Player.exe
    found in : C:\program Files\Divx\Divx Plus Player\
    identified as: RXTool bar

    Default RE: Possible false positive for Divx player as RXtool bar

    No it didn't reoccur, I always check for updates for spybot everyday or every other day, living on disability I can't afford to buy it or I would, it's one of the best programs out there and the fact that you offer a free version is outstanding!

    I uninstalled Divx and reinstalled it just to be safe, to be clear I did not get this false positive while doing a scan, it popped up while I was installing a divx update, once I did the reinstall I did not get the same warning again, so I'm guessing all is well. Thanks for the prompt response.
