I am a developer of database applications. Some days (~4) ago Ad-Aware Anniversary Edition started reporting that the database client application I am developing (budget.exe) is "Win32.Monitor.PowerSpy". The client application (budget.exe) communicates with application server (developed by me) using TCP/IP. Ad-Aware does not report thas the server is malicious software, but reports that the client application is. Please, tell me why does Ad-Aware thinks so? May be the best way to solve problem - is to remove suspicious parts of code (but why they are suspicious? - this is only a database application...). Adding my application into Ad-Aware ignore list does not cause Ad-Aware to stop reporting with balloon in the tray - but after scaning there is no malicious objects found(!).
