I downloaded the zip file for the avast external control from
http://www.excessive-software.tk/ and from here
http://snipurl.com/7ii8 and when i go to extract the files avast says a
virus has been found.
Virus name is Win32:Trojan-gen {VC}
why would it say that.?

File version is 0443-0

It’s a false positive…
RejZoR’s application is not a virus for sure… He will be sad (or angry) to know that this happened :-
Can you add it to your exclusion list until they correct this error?

Yep its done.

Cheers all,
I was worried about it…never EVER had problems with his external control device and would hate to get rid of it.
Will do the same.
