This is from Webroot :

When you receive reports of possible false positive detections on your application files, please advise your customers to open a Webroot support ticket. This will ensure that we get the required data and can verify that elevated heuristics settings on the client are not causing the erroneous detection.

You can send them the following response, which will be extremely helpful in resolving further false positive issues:

"To identify your issue, it is necessary for Webroot to have log files from the Webroot SecureAnywhere application on the affected computer system. Please right-click the SecureAnywhere icon in the system tray (next to the system clock display) on the computer which is experiencing the problem, then choose "Help and Support". Select "Open a Support Ticket" on the Webroot support web site that opens. By following these steps, the necessary data should upload automatically for Webroot to review and troubleshoot."

Thank you for your patience with this issue.

Sincerely,
The Webroot Advanced Malware Removal Team

Looks as though you had to fill out a form and submit it to Webroot in order for them to reverse the false - positive, which resolved the issue? Seems like a pain in the butt.

"I sent them an email quite sometime ago .. and heard nothing back. I will try again tonight."

"Hopefully that will be resolved soon .. as this time around, I found their proper "Threat Found - False Positive" contact form."

"Webroot finally replied back to me.

We have reversed this false positive. Thank you for your patience with this issue.

Sincerely,
The Webroot Advanced Malware Removal Team"

No error shows it just quits and closes itself.

Okay I manually shut down Webroot and it ran without interruption. It was quarantined in Webroot and so I 'Allowed' it in the Allow/Block catergory. However, it shows BingSearchBot24 as this instead 'rv0cd_n4.exe in f:/temp'. I can not get Webroot to identify it as the title of the program 'BingSearchBot24'. So, without the proper title (BingSearchBot24) allowed within Webroot it will still run into the crashing issue because Webroot will flag it.

f:/temp - is the location of my RAMDisk, not sure why Webroot is pointing to that directory when BingSearchBot24 is located in my D: drive.

'rv0cd_n4.exe' - Does this look familiar to you, and is this related to BingSearchBot24.exe?

At least, we narrowed it down to Webroot being the prankster here.  magnifier.gif

That "'rv0cd_n4.exe" is nothing to do with BingSearchBot. The bot does not use, load or rely on any other .exe programs.

I'll see if I can find any info on Webroot when I get back later tonight.
