I downloaded and installed Spysubtract ( http://www.intermute.com ) last

It listed this as a browser hijacker in the TrustedQSL portion of the
LOTW beta software I had installed earlier. Is the ARRL loading our
computers with spyware now?
The TrustedQSL software makes use of the "expat" library for parsing XML
documents (see:
http://www.libexpat.org/). This library is used in a
number of software projects, and libexpat.dll is the Windows version of
the library. It is not spyware by the remotest stretch of the imagination.
Clearly, Spysubtract is confused.
