Spybot detects false positive?

January 23rd, 2020

I searched with Spybot 2.1
It shows Jdownloader is spyware.
I searched SBI$01C58A36, and I found a site says I need to erase Toolbar.exe.
However, I could not find Toolbar.exe.
Also, it show Anchor.hss is spyware.
I searched it, but there is no answer about this.
Please someone explain these.

Answer #1
If you think it’s not a false positive, uninstall Jdownloader with REVO Uninstaller (to remove registry keys, etc) and re-run the scan after restarting. Does it still flag those registry keys as being there?
You could try running Jdownloader in a sandboxed (Sandboxie, Comodo Sandbox) environment though it may cause some issues if it’s trying to write to the registry as the below topic suggests

Also Malwarebytes > Spybot
Answer #2
Nearly every Anti Virus or Spyware program shows false positives. I’m using Avast AV and Malwarebytes and both pick up false positives on keygens and other cracks, but I just disable both until I finish doing what I’m doing.
