(SOLVED) Last SuperAntiSpyware definitions are a nightmare!!!!!

[zoril1]

Hi there:)

 

I use Superantispware(liftime) on a daily basis. Last nights definitions identified many known and trusted files, as either Adware.AddLyrics/Variant, or PUP.BProtector/Variant. 

 

I must emphasise that these files have been scanned for months with SAS and also a number of other established virus checkers and antispyware programs, including Malware AntimalwareByytes, Emsisoft, Avast and Eset online scanner.

 

As an additional measure  last night  I sent  a number of these files  to VirusTotal for multi engine scanning and all showed clean!

 

I must further emphasise that the box "Scan for frequently unwanted programs," was unchecked before the complete scan. I looked to see if there was any option to disable pup, or unwanted program detection, but found none other then that box.

 

Here is a list of the programs it found (see below). I have sent you both the quick scan and the complete log file. I whitelisted all.

 

Surely there should be an option to prevent this happening? The problem has only arisen for the first time after installing the latest SAS definitions:-
