Spyware?


Karma

Recommended Posts

After I installed Switch my daily scan with Webroot Spysweeper showed a Switch dialer as spyware.  I have noticed that when I use Switch it tries to call out.  What is going on?

 

No, Switch is not Spyware!

 

Make sure you download it from the official Switch Sound File Format Converter site though.

 

What is probably happening is you are attempting to convert a file which requires an install a demand components. When it attempts to download this component it your (stupid) spysweeper things it must be spyware.

 

After you first convert a file of a particular type it will not connect again because the converter component will be installed.

Appreciate the reply but it did not happen when Switch was open. Webroot Spysweeper does it's scan once a night and thought it was an exact match for the Switch dialer. Perhaps because it has the ability to call for help it is seen as a dialer.

Thanks.
