Spyware in Omega drivers? FALSE ALARM

Omegadrive · Apr 29, 2004, 10:41 PM

Spybot is wrongly detecting the SETUP program used by Indigo Rose in Setup Factory as spyware.
The problem seems to be that Setup Factory is indeed trying to connect to an IP address when it runs, But guess what IP address that is?

0.0.0.0

That means?
Is contacting NOTHING, just seems to be a connection check, that's all, which seems to be a bug in the program itself.

Now is clear, there is NO SPYWARE in my drivers.

It's a problem detected by people using Setup Factory. They are investigating it themselves.

EDIT: it seems this issue may have been fixed in version 6.0.1.4

I was wrong here and want to apoligize to Chaos. This was a mess and in my mad rush to see what was going on with Omega's drivers, I did not go back and fix this. This mirror is completely legit. Sorry Chaos Buddy.
