Poker client sets off Avast

Viruses and worms

I don’t know what I should do about this software download since it sets off Avast and this has very rarely happened in the 3 years of using Avast. Avast says there is a trojan in the file.

The link to the poker download is:

http://www.pacificpok[bröken]er.com/multihand/pacificpoker.exe

Thanks in advance

Welcome to the forums, garrym2000. :slight_smile:

Please tell us the name and location of the trojan that is detected.

Also tell us what your computer’s OS is as well as any other security programs that you have installed on your computer.
