gamespy.arcade

I installed FEAR yesterday and to play online it asks you if you want to install Gamespy.Arcade.Well NIS2006 tells me it's adware and i should remove it.I told it to exclude from search.Anybody else has this problem?

You do not need Gamespy Arcade to run multiplayer in FEAR. Gamespy arcade is not spyware and will not harm your computer. After installing Gamespy just run Ad Aware or a similar product and it will remove any components recognized as potential spyware. After the removal process, Gamespy will run fine.

Norton will not delete the file when scanned.  It simply advises you of the possible threat because Gamespy has an automatic executable file used to ck updates.
