I am getting a false positive for the trojan-spy.bankjet virus. Spyware dr seems to be marking files that are in Thomson Financials stock program as being this. Removing the "virus" with spyware dr cleans the machine, but makes the program inopperable. I am using a clean install (from the company on disk) so I know that there is no infections and it must be a false positive. WHat is the reporting process so that spyware dr can recognize these files as clean?
thanks

Hi gerhardps13,
Could you get a screenshot of the detection in SD and I'll pass this onto the Malware Research Centre for analysis.
