    Default Encountered and terminated FAVORIT-NETWORK in C:\WINDOWS\system

    This is further to this thread:

    http://forums.spybot.info/showthread.php?t=63989

    I got a warning as described.

    Can you confirm that this is a false positive. Does that mean there is no malware on my machine???

    Thanks for your help.

    Hello there is no Spybot S&D detection rule which detects the file. The information you provided on the file suggests that it is a legit Microsoft file.

    If you are using another security software it is very likely that you are also using the live protection provided by that security software. In that case you should deactivate Teatimer since more than one live protection can cause low performance and like in this case errors during live protection scans.
    The main scanners are usually not affected.

    To disable the TeaTimer do the following:

    start Spybot S&D
    switch to advanced mode
    navigate to tools - resident
    uncheck the checkbox for Resident TeaTimer to shutdown TeaTimer and remove it from system start
    born in the shadow to die in the shadow, that is the fate of the shinobi

    Please help us improve Spybot and download our distributed testing client.
