CA PestPatrol false positive - NeoSpy / rarsfx0 directory / WinRAR
Another false positive doing the rounds, this time in CA's PestPatrol software which is incorrectly identifying %profile%\local settings\temp\rarsfx0 as being part of part of the rogue NeoSpy package (see here for CA's description).
In fact, the rarsfx0 directory is just a temporary folder created by RARLAB's WinRAR application - that's a harmless commercial file packager. This folder looks to have been included accidentally in a PestPatrol signature released on 9th January.
Note that if you have PestPatrol installed with the faulty signature, then WinRAR archives may not unpack properly.
