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
 
thank you for reporting this issue.

Please make sure to fully update your installation of Spybot S&D and then restart your computer.
The false positive is not supposed to reoccur, please tell us if the false positive did reoccur or not.
 
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.
