My AntiVirus program reports that the SpyStopper Pro log file, spylog.txt, is infected with CodeRed.C worm. Why?
This is a false positive. SpyStopper Pro blocks the CodeRed worm and simply logs the actual worm data into the optional text log file. This file is not infected. The alert is false. Just ignore it. You may contact Norton or other companies and ask them to correct the false alert problem. Also, you can delete the log file and uncheck Keep a Log File in SpyStopper Pro. This will also eliminate the problem. However, you will not have the log file to give you the information on the blocks.
