I've been corresponding with someone at Eset over some files (mostly old) that I've got on my computer, that are setting off false positives on the scanner. One of them is dcombob.exe, Steve Gibson's DCOMbobulator DCOM on/off proggie, so I was surprised that they triggered on that. However, they aren't the only ones. In trying to email them a copy, both Shaw (my provider) and Gmail bounced the messages, specifically referring to that file. ====================== (quote inserted randomly by Pegasus Mailer) rslade () vcn bc ca slade () victoria tc ca rslade () sun soci niu edu I said that if people tell you your mother is not prime minister anymore, you just turn around and say, 'So what?
