Most security vendors suggest that you put your sample(s) inside a password-protected archive* (preferably zip) to prevent being filtered/corrupted. In the e-mail/web form body include the archive password, symptom(s) of the infection(s) and if possible the site url(s) where you got the suspect file(s). In some cases if you can't locate the file(s), just e-mail the malware url(s) to your vendor and ask for removal assistance.

If you suspect your security vendor has produced a false positive (fp), put the detected file(s) inside a password-protected archive* (preferably zip). To get hold of the file(s), temporarily disable the real-time shield of your security software, restore the file(s) from quarantine and put the file(s) in your software's exclusion list. Refer to the help file of your security software to do those. In the e-mail/web form body include the archive password, site url(s) where you got the file(s) and reason(s) why the file(s) is/are safe.

*How to password protect zip files in windows XP/windows vista? If you're using an older Windows Operating System you need a 3rd party archiver (like 7-zipthat is free). Refer to the archiver's help file.

If you spot any mistakes, wrong contacts/links or would like to add other vendor contacts please post them. Thanks. 

PS: Don't forget to change (at) to @. Some forms/links are not in English so use online translators like Google's or Yahoo's to translate them into English or your language.
