Red Swoosh Client Setting the record straight

Red Swoosh is NOT Adware/Spyware/Malware

Red Swoosh has always provided professional software that respects its users and their PCs. Our client has been so non-intrusive that some firms have carelessly and mistakenly identified Red Swoosh as Adware/Spyware/Malware. The major firms (Symantec, Microsoft, McAffee) understand that our client is not harmful, and have whitelisted Red Swoosh. However, many smaller firms still must take Red Swoosh off their lists. For those of you who have had protection software identify Red Swoosh as Spyware, please help us educate these firms that is one of the good guys. Please visit our web forum for information on how to contact these firms, as well as to ask questions or provide feedback on our client.
