Default Infection messages?

I've read your posts there and the replies. No matter how many times
you
tell them they will not see past an infection. You are right to just
uninstall it but I would send an email to Christian Mairoll the
company CEO
since this is not a malware issue but a software programming issue.
Don't
waste your time again starting from scratch.


A security application is set to delete index.dat on system boot. A-
squared Anti-Malware is seeing this and alerting to the suspicious
activity.


Then why would the message say:

"...could not be removed. file is no longer existent"

if A-squared wasn't trying to remove the file itself?

Why try to remove a non-existent file? Why not check for the existence
of a file before trying to remove it and generating such an error
message.

Why would the programmatical deletion of a browsing history file be
considered suspicious activity?

I'm tempted to agree with the software thief on this one.
