I didnt quarantine it in adaware, I deleted it but I do trust you when
you say it is a positive positive as opposed to being a false positive
(though I do have Webroot Spy Sweeper which catches all of these types
of things, especially quite old ones like this one seems to be)
Does it create some sort of machine to report any password I type to
some place the FBI can identify? If so I am sure they would like to
know about it as it would tend to give away its originator every time
it reports home?
