False alerts by A-Squared 5l4p73

[TheTOM_SK]

I updated A-Squared Free and it detected FDM as trace spyware.
I scanned PC a week ago with FDM 2.0 installed and all was clear.

I put HTML report HERE. Make sure, that A-Squared will fix it soon.

Hello

Me too I have a report of A-Squared Free who detected FDM as traces spyware

Is it right or wrong

Thanks for advance

[Alex]

FDM does not contain spyware.

[firezone]

a-squared free detected the following spyware traces on my pc also.

Is it a false positive?

If yes please say emsisoft to resolve this problem.

Well, as long as FDM will be listed on Softpedia, false alerts will not disturbs me.

Code: Select all

Softpedia guarantees that Free Manager 2.0 Build 423 is 100% FREE, which means it is a freeware product (both for personal and commercial use) that does not contain any form of malware, including but not limited to: spyware, viruses, trojans and backdoors.

I just ran www.freemanager.telechargerjeux.org thru siteadvisor.com and FDM was awarded a "Warning" rating.

The full report can be viewed here:

If it is a false positive someone should set them straight.

I chose to ignore a2's aleart based on the assurances I have found here.
