To clarify, it seems that the program is a trial version, which analyzes your system and informs you that you need to register in order to clean based on the analysis. Is this correct? This is similar to most programs that offer a trial version. They allow you to test out the functionality, but restrict any abuse of their software. Please let me know if I am misunderstanding the situation.

Maybe, but this also sounds like vundo like programs

Right , its a classical case about a misleading Application (FraudTool) , see the AV Scans from Virustotal on my last Postings. .

My Question now since Post 1 is , why Norton Antibot can not Remove this ?

Norton Antibot says :

"Process not isolated , valid or Systemprocess : adwarebot.exe" ... and this is clear a failure !

Hi Voyager10,

The message basically says that Norton Antibot does not allow you to quarantine system applications or applications that are allowed (i.e manually or whitelisted). The reason for this is that we do not want to let users remove applications that can potentially leave the system in an unstable state. Quarantining this specific threat should not have this effect but this is the general rule we follow to avoid system instability.

Hope this answers your question.

Cheers

Thanks , this is what i want to know. ;)

i think we can simple fix this Problem , remove this Signature "antispyware LLC" from the NAB Whitelist or blacklist this specific threat as no trustworthily.

Nab is a very good Program , in Germany NAB this time have a good Reputation in the Media and the Users , such Problems can damage this Reputation.
