Can you provide a mechanism for us to submit false positive information

Hi everyone,

The updated VRT Rule Search feature is now live on Snort.org.  Check it
out at: http://snort.org/search.

Full text search supports the following:

Single keyword or SID search (ex – ‘windows’, ‘mysql’, ‘linux’)
Multiple keyword search (ex – ‘windows 2000’, ‘mysql 4.10’)
Multiple keyword search with terms joined by the AND, OR, and NOT boolean
operators (ex – ‘windows AND 2000 NOT xp’)

You can also search by rule fields to narrow your search results.  The
available fields are:

keyword
cve
bugtraq
sid

See the search instructions at: http://snort.org/rule-search-instructions
for more information on using the enhanced search capabilities.

For those of you using BASE, keep an eye out for an upcoming release.
Kevin and the BASE team will be updating the direct links back to Snort.org
for rules documentation.

Finally, the next enhancement will be to add the ability to search by
Microsoft advisory number.  We'll make an announcement when that feature is
enabled.

We'd love your feedback,  please email any comments or enhancement
requests to snort-site () sourcefire com.  Our web developers monitor this
list.

Have a great day!

Mike
