Agree, my W2K SP4 also was clean. The F/P has been picked up on 3 machines all running WinME.

When I get home tonight I'll update Adaware on my WinMe PC and post back here with the results.

Mike,

Well, as soon as the servers get caught up, so to speak, I'll be able to update and run a scan on both boxes here, until then.....

same thing here on win xp sp2: Data : Wildflics
posters are reporting fp's with either w98 or winme
no winxp users report fp
coupled with the fact that your report shows Wildflics
i'd not be so sure it's a fp

My above report does not show Wildflics....but it is the same findings matunga had. The difference is in how I displayed the info versus how matunga displayed the info. After a scan....if you double click on a Critical Objects entry you can select To Clipboard. If you select the Scan Log tab....the info is somewhat different....and in this case Wildflics shows in the Scan log....but not in the To Clipboard

dp See Profile must have displayed it the same way as you as there is no Wildflics showing in that info either... thanks for the clarification

so far, all win98/winme users report a fp and
zero winxp/win2k users report a fp
except matunga See Profile
that was enough for me to suggest he double-check
