IT <http://it.slashdot.org/> : Symantec Competing Unfairly Against Spybot? Posted by CowboyNeal <http://cowboyneal.org/> on Saturday January 14, @09:32AM from the moving-to-secure-income dept. <http://slashdot.org/search.pl?tid=172> frankbaird <mailto:fNbOaSiPrAdM () yahoo com> writes "Symantec has been claiming for months that the anti-spyware program Spybot-Search & Destroy corrupts Norton Ghost images. Spybot has tried to convince them this is a false positive. After having been ignored, and this is the second time Symantec has claimed a false positive against Spybot, the makers of Spybot have gone public <http://safer-networking.org/en/news/2006-01-07.html> . They claim that rather than compete fairly with quality products, Symantec is resorting to libel."
