This is a warning to all. Please pass this information forward to others . This application
mentioned below is using a database that was stolen from SpybotS&D . This was suspected
and reported by a malware expert, and has been confirmed by myself and Patrick. The
databse is stolen.
1 Click Spy Clean

Whether this company actually stole it or purchased it from someone else who did
has yet to be establshed. But that is no matter.
A scan produces two detections which are presented very much unique to SpybotS&D:
Alexa Related
DSO Exploit
But in addition to that I have a couple other methods available to verify as does
Patrick. Our tests confirmed with absolute certainty that the database came from
Safer-Networking, LTD (SpybotS&D).
----------------------
I think they need to be informed about the error of their ways, although I suggest
without threats or nasty flaming. If folks have a desire to contact them (wink) here
is their contact page http://es.1clickspyclean.com/contact.htm
