Malware Removal Tool - removing our application!

I have been informed by a customer that the latest release of the
Malware Removal Tool is removing one of the program files for our
application, Trojan Remover (www.simplysup.com). It identifies the
file as Win32/Nuwar.

We have been aware for over a week that Windows Live OneCare has been
raising a false positive on our application, identifying it as
TrojanDropper:Win32/Nuwar.B. We have emailed the false-positive
findings to the address given (onecare@submit.microsoft.com) twice so
far, but we have not yet received any reply.

Is there a support address we can use to contact the MRT team
directly, so that we can report this false positive? Given the likely
impact this is going to have on our userbase, fixing this issue is of
huge importance to us.
