Is there a place where we could rate .DLLs that SpyDllRemover shows as “suspicious” even though we really believe they are not dangerous? Ex: YBHook.dll seems to be part of an update of FlashPlayer.
Thanks.

I guess it was marked as ‘analysis’ (in yellow color) rather than suspicious as you have mentioned. But if it is marked as suspicious (in brown color) then its error and we would like to know about it.
Can you please confirm if it is marked as ’suspicious’ or ‘analysis’ item.
Currently there is no option for marking it otherwise. That will be great addition which may appear in upcoming releases.
