Attempting Trans log backups on Simple DBs?

We're currently using SQL Backup 4.6.0.815 on some of our servers. I've noticed that it appears at random to decide to try to do a trans log backup on databases marked as simple. It can run 40 times in a day, and just once out of those 40 times it'll try to do a trans log backup on one of the system dbs which are in Simple recovery mode.
I know this is a very old version, but does anyone know why this happens?
I don't really want to go around and change everything to full just to stop it from sending me alarms.

Thanks in advance.

    IIRC, it was a strange situation where SQL Server returned the recovery model of the database as full/bulk-logged, when in actual fact, the recovery model was simple. when SQL Backup made 2 queries to retrieve the databases' recovery model. This was subsequently fixed in later versions, where only 1 query was made, where the results are usually correct.
