OK. I’m done. I’ve had it with avast.
What used to be a great AV has turned into a useless PoS.
I’m absolutely SICK of the false positives, this so called “evo-gen”. It is just unacceptable, there are WAY too many false positives.
As I’ve mentioned before:
- several samsung printer utilities are flagged.
- a game called 10 talismans.
- a program called registry trash key finder.
- almost every winrar SFX archive.
Most recently:
- the gcc compiler (64 bit)
- 7zFM.exe from the latest beta (9.38) of 7-zip.
Those are just the ones off the top of my head, there are a lot more.
This is NOT ACCEPTABLE. Avast disrupts my work way too often, blocks or deletes legitimate files, interrupts downloads, etc.
If this evo-gen nightmare is not fixed I’m ditching avast along with my hundreds of customers.
Also, the browser cleanup utility is another piece of crap. No matter how many times I tell it to IGNORE a certain browser add-on that is GOD-KNOWS-WHY flagged as having bad reputation, the damn thing will nag me again and again about it.
WHAT PART OF “IGNORE” DOES THIS CRAP NOT UNDERSTAND???
ignore means: DON’T ASK ME AGAIN ABOUT THIS. Is it too difficult to understand?
don’t even bother replying to this post, JUST FIX THIS ISSUE!
