    I feel it's appropriate for it to discover WinVNC, et al, as it is
    well-known to hack these products to obscure them; hide the tray icon,
    change the running process name, etc. Note also that the MS product defaults
    to "Ignore" for WinVNC when taking action in the Results phase.

    Just an FYI, the searchsquire that it turned up in your report is part
    of Spybot S&D's immunization.

    Also on a side note it finds and reports VNC which makes it nearly
    useless to me as this is the primary program I use for remote
    troubleshooting.

    I wrote up a short review for another list, but no harm in sharing it
    here too. =)
