    Default spybot/clamwin conflict

    Hi all,
    I run a Win98se computer,have used spybot for twelve years.My anti virus is free version of clamwin V0.97.5.Previous versions were ok.On opening this one teatimer jumps up"w9xpopen.exe" is a bad guy.

    Checked the file at virustotal and jotti, no problem.This file is needed to open the application.It is becoming difficult to fine antivirus to run on OS.

    Regards pulteny.

    Hello,

    I cannot confirm this false positive with clamwin V0.97.5.
    Please make sure to fully update Spybot S&D and reboot your computer.

    If w9xpopen.exe still gets detected please send it to detections@spybot.info with a reference to this thread for analysis.

    Default spybot/clamwin conflict

    Hi all.

    The conflict is over. I downloaded the newer version of clamwin antivirus V0.97.6 and it sits well again with spybot search & destroy.

    Thank you for response.

    Regards pulteny.
