Well, since numerous sources have indicated that they think you are malware, perhaps you should release the source code to demonstrate your trustworthiness, unless you really do distribute malware, in which case, feel free to not publish the source code.

http://www.spywaredb.com/remov...

https://www.google.com/search?...

Here are numerous experts marking a piece of your software as malware, prove them wrong.

If you plan to try APK's solution out, just be warned it installs the dangerous malware apkapp2backgrounddaemonprocessengine.exe (Google it, it's one of the worst applications out there.) Be very careful indeed!

I notice you say all that but "forget" to tell us if you have a typing diploma APK? Could it be because you don't have one? APK, diploma-less "ne'er-do-well" rofl NAPK showed you here -> https://tech.slashdot.org/comments.pl?sid=3083489&cid=41179623

NAPK burned APK here ---> http://tech.slashdot.org/comments.pl?sid=3058625&cid=41100739

Where is your typing diploma APK? LOL you can't answer because you don't have one!

"Skilled" APK can't even cut and paste Python without failing to indent it properly. LOL! Python, the Object Oriented COBOL and APK doesn't understand indenting! LOL!

* LOL Malware APK?

The notorious apkapp2backgrounddaemonprocessengine.exe is so dangerous that respected virus authority spynomore.com describes it as "Threat risk: High Risk. Very dangerous malware. Can log user's keyboard activity and take snapshots of the user's screen. Uses stealth installation and removal is very difficult"

#4 Forgets to name major corporation he "owns" LOL

Why? Because APK doesn't own one! Unlike people like Bill Gates, Thor Schrock, and Mitt Romney APK has never owned a company that had hundreds of people reliant on him for employment.

That's a strange way of saying someone bought them. You can't sell something unless it's any good. Have you ever sold anything APK? LOL!

These are real businesses: Sun Microsystems, DEC, Sinclair Research, CA, BellSouth. Know what they have in common? People wanted to buy them and paid big $$$. Some other businesses? Enron. The Dumont Network. APKWare LLC. Anyone bought them? No, because those businesses weren't worth buying.

LOL so you admit you can't spell Schrock. Where is your typing diploma APK? You can't show it because you don't have one ROFL. And you admit CA's security department was good enough that it was BOUGHT by other companies, like a long line of VALUABLE corporations like Sun Microsystems, Sinclair Research, BellSouth, DEC, etc, etc. Has anyone tried to buy APKWare LLC?

A real business with real employees? I don't think so APeeK LOL! It's one thing to run an LLC out of your basement but a real corporation, one of the most respected in Nebraska? You have to at least know how to spell people's names. Thor Schrock can spell your name, can you spell his? LOL YOU CAN'T because you don't have a typing diploma.

P.P.P.S => As "Han Solo" would say "Talk Backward I do not Because Yoda I am not!"

P.P.P.P.S => LOL! ROFL!

* Your own posting on Slashdot proves it? LOL! I want real evidence!

And Thor Schrock is smarter than you, he can, after all, write both his own name, and yours whereas you can't even write "Schrock" LOL. Show me your typing diploma. Do you have a typing diploma APK? You can't show me yours because you don't have one

You ran a REAL business? I don't think so! Real businesses are like CA, IBM, Schrock Associates, Oracle, Google, and Microsoft. You think you have industry experience just because you ran an "LLC" out of your basement? ROFL.

P.S => Visual BASIC 3? ROFL!!

P.P.S => For the "trolls" Big O is a measure of complexity, whereby the length of time, measured in cycles, of a looped operation is compared to the amount of data being processed. For example, a hash lookup is O(1), a search through a list is O(N) (because the number of operations is proportional, on average, to the number of items), and a bubblesort is O(n!) (I think, I can't remember, it's been a while since I did this.) The reason it's relevant to a hosts file generator is that if you use the wrong algorithms, you'll find that the length of time it takes to process your initial hosts list will increase exponentially, or worse, as you add more hosts.

P.P.P.S => That wasn't really for the "trolls", that was for you APK. I thought you might need it explaining to you.

P.P.P.P.S => FOUR MILLION CLOCK CYCLES PER HOSTNAME? Seriously? LOL! Do you have a real computer science degree APK or one you bought from an online college? ROFL etc.

Do you have a source that proves that it isn't malware? LOL you can't

If I trusted every jerk who emailed me about why his spyware application is detected by our software I would go blue in the face.

Do you manage a major corporation APK? Do you even live in Nebraska? ROFL I don't think so!

You dodged a bullet. I did some reading and apkapp2backgrounddaemonprocessengine.exe sounds like it's one of the most dangerous programs on the Internet, based upon the reviews below.

Based upon the above, I'd say better advice than simply restoring your Slackware .wine directory would be to completely lowlevel format the drives. I hope you haven't kept your PC connected to the Internet since you installed the app.

Why isn't "ping" listed thus? It could issue a "ping of death".

No, it can't. Do you even know what the "ping of death" is?

Why isn't Spybot Search & Destroy?? It alters a HOSTS file.

Because there's nothing wrong with software modifying the HOSTS file per-se, especially in the context of actually trying to remove malware.

Your app got blacklisted because it hid running applications. And who blacklisted it? Amongst others:

CA - listed as "Any tool that might be used in planning an attack on a system, developing tools for such an attack, or performing it."

It may be that the reason for APK's existence is to serve as a warning to others.

Ever done anything bad, completely unintentionally? Alexander Peter Kowalski fits the bill. He's the author of a tool, apkapp2backgrounddaemonprocessengine, considered malware by a large number of anti-malware companies and organizations. He probably wrote it in good faith, but the reality is that it's a product that can be used easily and effectively to hide spyware on a computer. So many anti-malware organizations have flagged it as majorly dangerous.

To add insult to injury, Kowalski doesn't handle criticism maturely. See here for an example of Kowalski going about dealing with negative material on the Internets in entirely the wrong way.

So if you read material by APK, just remember that while he apparently has a lot of degrees in computer something or other, he's not terribly smart when it comes to the whole forward thinking thing.

You may not like it, you may have done it accidentally (though with your determination to slander the anti-malware community and promote snake-oil "anti-virus" solutions with demonstrable flaws, and an unwillingness to address those flaws, suggests bad faith on your part), but you are, objectively, an author of software considered malware by the wider community.

Libel kinda sorta requires the allegation be false. The allegation you write malware does, well, appear to be true now, doesn't it?

For those new to this, the troll is someone claiming to be a defender of a certain Alexander Peter Kowalski, the author of a tool, apkapp2backgrounddaemonprocessengine, generally considered malware by a large number of anti-malware companies and organizations.

Spyware No-More ("Threat risk: High risk", "Advice: Remove This is a very high risk threat and should be removed immediately as to prevent harm to your computer and / or to protect your privacy")

Mr Kowalski, or his admirer, got upset because someone had the audacity to link to a threat describing Kowalski's attempts to remove some embarrassing comments posted under his name. Rather than deal with it maturely, this person has been attempting to stalk said poster and those who pointed out Kowalski wasn't doing himself any favors.

So if you see these comments posted as replies to clone, squiggleslash, or Tom, now you know why they're appearing. And if you feel like joining in, well, come on in, the water's lovely!

squiggleslash = malware maker? (Score:1)

That's an interesting claim given it's from the author (or someone pretending to be a "fan" of the "author") of apkapp2backgrounddaemonprocessengine.exe:

There is one person involved in this conversation who has written software identified as "malware" by the security community. That person is the one promoting the idea of using a HOSTS file to block malware. That same person says that even after using HOSTS the way they claim, they're getting hit by two viruses a month, two more than the vast majority of Windows users.

Your gall is astonishing.

No, a good reason for putting down HOSTS as a solution to anything is when the person proposing it as a "solution" admits it doesn't work by admitting that using the scheme they get two viruses a month, which is two more than the vast majority of Windows users.

I suspect the real reason why you're proposing HOSTS is because you're desperate to prevent people giving money to the anti-malware companies. And why would that be?

(...there's quite a few more links too. Want me to post more? Just ask!)

Well, if you're not a spyware maker then obviously it's unfortunate, but in the US libel does require an element of malice, and from some quick Googling, it does appear that multiple sources believe you are, indeed, a spyware author. They may or may not be correct, but someone can legitimately, in good faith, say you are one because it's very easy to believe you are.

I say this because I googled "Alexander Peter Kowalski". The very first link is this one:

How to Respond When People Threaten to Sue You on the Web.

Now, in the above posting, you threaten the author of a spyware removal tool because his tool (and apparently others too) have identified one of your programs as being spyware. As with Jeremy Reimer and, indeed, Clone here, you were, apparently quick to yell "Libel", and your responses appear (to me - and I'm just giving you my honest opinion, this is how you're coming across to me) as hysterical and nutty. The impression anyone reading the article gets is not "My, Mr Kowalski has been given a very rough time, poor thing.", but "Some Spyware manufacturer is trying to intimidate anti-spyware people."

And, for what it's worth, doing some googling on the executable described by the above link continues the theme whereby apparently rather a lot of people are under the impression your software is spyware. The first eight links I get when I Google are all from anti-spyware organizations, and the other two on the first page aren't flattering either.

Coupled with the fact that respected agencies such as CA are apparently standing behind their claim your software is spyware, there is nothing libelous about Clone's viewpoint. It might be wrong, I can't comment, I've never been privileged enough to have your software on my PC (I'm a GNU/Linux guy personally), but it's not a malicious written falsehood that damages your reputation.

So, no, Clone isn't libeling anyone here. Here's what to do about it if you're telling the truth:

• Take a step back. Honestly, take a deep breath, and stop getting angry.
• Determine why CA and others believe your software to be spyware. If there's an innocent explanation, give it. If there isn't, well, the difference between a spyware author who harasses those who point it out, and one who keeps quiet, is that more people hear about the allegations against the stalker.
• Be the man. You've upset a number of people, and a quick Google reveals it to be more than Jeremy Reimer and Clone over here. If your software is being tagged as spyware then it rather suggests that intentionally or not, you've also upset a number of people who use your software. Fess up, fix the issues, and take some steps to mend fences between you and your critics.

I'm saying this not because I think you will, but because it's what you have to do. At this point, Alexander Peter Kowalski's name is mud. It's mud not so much because someone got confused and thought you were making spyware when really you were making the coolest app evah, but because you haven't handled the criticism of the app particularly well.

LOL, very, VERY lofty claims for someone who writes SPYWARE!

Yes, that’s right, as quoted on MANY sources:

This has been enough of a problem for the Nmap Security Scanner that we warn about McAfee specifically and suggest better alternatives on the Nmap Download Page (See the Windows section). More details about the problems we've encountered are posted here. I've spoken with McAfee executives at conferences and they say they want to fix the problem, but then it just gets lost in their bureaucracy. Sigh.

Also, it is annoying when free software gets wrongly listed on spyware databases. For example, check out the "Spyware Encyclopedia" entry on Nmap, which says "NMap belongs to the Port Scanner spyware category. It's[SIC] presense[SIC] means that your computer is infected with malicious software and is insecure." WTF? Similarly, Nmap has an entry in the "CA Spyware Information Center". If they want to warn about Nmap because it can be used for network discovery, fine. But it shouldn't be called spyware, adware, or anything like that.

Have you ever run Linux? Or OSX? While running these operating systems, have you ever received any spyware? If so, please list the name of the said spyware program, along with a link to an information resource about said spyware. If you can't find one, I'd be glad to list information resources that contain such information for Windows:

Spyware Guide
Spyware Encyclopedia
Spyware Database

Each of these contains thousands of listed spyware programs for Windows. Considering Linux and OSX are the next most popular OSes after Windows, why wouldn't hackers be motivated to write spyware or viruses? The source code is open source, after all.
