Has anyone else seen this problem? I use Ad-Aware as on-demand scanner and
have Norton Security Suite ("free" version from Comcast) as real time
scanner. After updating to Ad-Aware 11, Norton started detecting
"W32.Sality.W" in a temp file in the Ad-Aware program folder on every scan.
Each time it said it had removed the threat and requested reboot to complete
the removal process. Next scan it finds it again. Nothing found by
Malwarebytes, Spybot S&D, or Ad-Aware itself. After 6 or 8 times I finally
uninstalled Ad-Aware and Norton hasn't found anything since. I'm assuming
this was a false positive but haven't seen any reports of a similar problem.
I'll probably wait a week to be sure problem doesn't return before trying to
re-install Ad-Aware.
