I recently downloaded a copy of Wireshark and my spyware detector believes that the file \Program Files\Wireshark\plugins\0.99.2pre1\sbus.dll is spyware.  Anyone else have this file?  Is it part of the legitimate release or did I pick up a bad release?  It is not in my Ethereal release.
The sbus.dll is a new dissector added "recently".

Although you never can be sure, I'll guess this is a false positive of your spyware detector.

Which one (and which version) do you use?
