[QUOTE="roger_m, post: 563831, member: 31436"] It's not just about false positives, they are only part of the problem. I have some PUPs installed on my system, which I installed myself and want to keep. It's understandable (and a good thing too) that ZAM detects these, but I would not want ZAM, or any other security software, to remove them without asking me first. I don't care if you can go the quarantine and restore the files and they then get whitelisted, I want to be able to whitelist the files before they are quarantined. This issue does not affect me directly as I've never enabled realtime protection in ZAM, but will be an issue for some users who use it with realtime protection enabled. I refuse to use any antivirus which is not able to prompt every single time that a threat is found. My current antivirus does actualy auto quarantine files, but at least it always lets me know when it has quarantined a file, and gives me the option to go directily to the quanratine and restore and whitelist the file. I will keep using ZAM, since I don't use realtime protection, and it has excellent detection rates, but I will never enable the realtime protection. [/QUOTE]
