I've had a problem with false positives where Secunia showed programs being insecure which, after investigation, weren't. Re-scan didn't alter the findings. Could there be a possibility of false negatives? Many programs aren't followed by Secunia; so, what is the purpose of having it if many programs I use could be "insecure" and nobody knows?

there is always a possibility of false positives, what progs did you encounter as fp?

One was Windows 2000 which had been updated. After seeing the insecure listing I went back to Windows Update and nothing was missing. The second, I believe, was Java RTE which also had been fixed. Secunia gave a link to the fixes of each bu nothing could be fixed even though I tried. The insecure status of both remained until I recently purchased a new computer. Six or eight months ago I gave them a list of non-covered programs such as Erunt which they still don't recognize. But what about other programs capable of being insecure: Roxio, Gin Rummy, Backgammon, Cribbage, time synchronization, DVD shrink programs and a lot of others. Isn't this like locking only half the doors and windows in your house to prevent burglary?
