Something went wrong… not a good picture… :-\

3

Hopefully we’ll get a reply from Alwil as to the reason why avast! failed. ???

4

There was some false positive, at least that’s what the article says…
We don’t know the details (yet) :slight_smile:

5

I hope avast! will get better soon! One fail in battle does not mean they failed the war! :wink: Go ALWIL, go, the war with viruses is not over! ;D

6

I do hope it gets better. I see no reason to use a substandard AV or any other application.
