False Positive ? Trojan-PSW.Win32.Delf.ej

[screamer]

On an intelli scan SWD came up w/ 30 infections: Trojan-PSW.Win32.Delf.ej

I scanned w/ AVG and aSquared and they found nothing. Also submitted an online HJT file for auto scanning and it also found nothing.

Any thought's ???

I received the same thing on the trial version. I think it's just a scam to get you to buy the program. Because I've run over 5 different spyware programs and not 1 has scanned and found a trojan other than spyware doctor. It also shows a lot of programs with warning that aren't even on my computer.

i dont think pctools SD tell you are infected just to make you buy the program
most program do it but i cant imagine pctools doing this
2 points my friend:
1 you are infected(and i can assure you SD CAn found a lot of infections and maybe other products found nothing
2- its a sd false positive..but its very rare with SD
hope this helps

probably a FP then

strings of numbers can often set off FP's
it's not just to attract new customors, that's what the cookie scanner is for

You are wrong my friend. If SWD did use scare tactics / create FP to induce you to purchase the app, they would be on the Rouge Spyware List:

Instead, they are on the short list of trustworthy apps.

Well, I sent a support ticket to tech support regarding this find. In the meantime, I put it on the Global Action (Trust) List. We'lll see what TS says.

SWD found this Trojan on my machine and I just clicked the fix button and it went away. A quick search shows this Tojan is present on other companies malware list. i.e. CounterSpy.

If SWD shows it as a know infection and other products don't, why do you think its a false positive and not just PC-Tools being ahead of the game?
