NoAdware - is it malware?

[BCNZ]

I've been running NoAdware (not to be confused with 'NoAdaware') for a number of years now and I've been installing it on client's computers. To date, no one has reported any problems with it and I've always found it to be reliable.

Today, a friend showed me the result he gets when he runs Spybot Search and Destroy.
It is claiming that NoAdware is actually malware, with false positives and bogus claims of having found non-existent problems - apparently in order to make the user purchase the full edition.

Has anyone else found this, or know the truth with NoAdware?

This website is what many spyware/adware scanners use as a reference. Noadware was taken off the rogue list in 2004, for some reason since 11/2007 Spybot S&D decided they didn't like it again.

is free and often recommended...
