Scarecrow Man Posted June 23, 2004 Report Share Posted June 23, 2004 Shareaza is a peer-to-peer client for Windows that allows you to download any file-type found on several popular P2P networks. Shareaza is FREE & contains NO Spyware or third-party products.That's a quote from Sharezaa, but it could be a lie :huh: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redhat Posted June 23, 2004 Report Share Posted June 23, 2004 It's not a lie..trust me. For one thing, they would be caught out as the program is open-source. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scarecrow Man Posted June 23, 2004 Report Share Posted June 23, 2004 Chances are you got the spyware from another piece of software/website or the version you installed was from a 3rd party (added software) or the spyware it thinks it found, is as Redhat said, a false positive.
